Got a big old bag of once fired 30,06 Super-X brass nice and neat in the cardboard boxes. Processed as usual and set them aside. Got two youngsters interested in shooting so I loaded up the good 'ol 30 Gr. 4198 and some blem 168 match bullets. Mild recoil bug hole groups yada yada yada.
Processed the empties and noticed a faint scratch all the way around the cases on the body, below the shoulder. I have seen this before! Bet'ch all that brass came out of a Garand or BAR or maybe even a bolt gun with reamer mark in the chamber.
Then I did a little batch of match Federal .308s...and saw the same mark!
What is going on here? Review...Anybody have a LEE chamfer gizzey? Mine is 30 years old, been using it so much the inside part is dull, but the outside cutter is still good to go.
If you are not paying attention, the rim of the gizzey will rub a faint ring around the cartridge case while you are deburring the outside of the case mouth! On 308 and 30'06. A dozen other calibers that live at my house do not have the gizzey mark, just the SX '06s and Fed 308s.
I have become old.
