Almost a reason for me NOT to buy the Nosler brass. I know it's good stuff, but I enjoy the prep work a bit.

With that said, I do still purchase Nosler brass.


It takes all kinds but if I never have to trim a piece of brass again I'll be happy as a clam.
Almost got my boys thinking trimming and chamfering is fun.
They're not buying it completely though.


Now that's funny stuff.

Yeah, I get new brass, run through expander, sort for neck thickness, neck turn, clean up primer pockets (usually not necessary), debur flash holes (usually not necessary), sort by weight into groups. I would guess when I get 100 pieces of brass it takes me 2 or 3 weeks to do all the prep.

Does it shoot better than not prepped brass? A little, but not much. If I feed my rifle something it likes it normally shoots just fine, and if I don't, it doesn't. But it's fun to do the work. I prefer it to watching TV.
