Thread: Stowaway in my Amax's

Just use it with a sabot

But the real question here is did you get an extra free bullet or get ripped off by half a bullet?

Just need a nice 22 Hornet now

Yip that's what I thought to, definatley looks like one.

Except its 30 grains

Not 35

This undermines my confidence that every single bullet in a box will be the same weight and calibre, let alone the same batch.

It makes me feel inclined to run a micrometer and scales over each projectile before loading.

Talking about unexpected items, I once found a fly withot wings in my can of AR 2208.

After a thoughtful root cause analysis I concluded it probably flew too close to the desk lamp I have by the reloading bench, got fried and fell into the hopper on my chargemaster.

Now I always put the lid on and although I use the lamp to visually check theres powder in each case I keep it away from straight above them and cover cases wih a cloth until Im just about to fill them.

That's the OCD in us reloaders.
