Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Reloading a Belted case ..... yes i know

Jeezus Fhuqk...where/how do you Droolers dream this schit up?!? Hint.

Fhuqking LAUGHING!.............

Amen.

That's from my die, you really are an idiot. I like to keep my dies like that, so I can tell what they are doing. You may want to listen, rather than open your big mouth. Listen to the men here: You might learn something.. Some things seem to go right over your head though..

Belted cases are made short to the shoulder and undersized in the body.
There was an excellent reason when they were invented.
As my big game is killed with a semi-auto belted magnum rifle I only use fully prepped new brass when hunting.
Shoots 3 sub moa which is good enuf.
No reason for belts anymore unless you're shooting a break open rifle that you can't find a rimmed cartridge for.
Waiting for a semi-auto in 300 Norma or 30 Nosler.

The soot is from your dies....and I'm m the idiot ?

Child it might be time to clean your sooty dies you idiot
.

You can buy powdered graphite case lube, you fuucking dolt. Some of us use it.

Have most of a 1 pound can left….got it in the mid seventies. Great way to inside neck lube …..but, you do get it on the outside as well! memtb

My dad used it a lot for his BR brass. When he passed, I inherited his stash. Good stuff. I lube all sorts of stuff with graphite now, including case necks!

Only dolts lube the outside of their case necks....

Part of the process and very easy to wipe off! memtb

I'm going to go ahead and quote you on that, every time it becomes relevant.

I don't run an expander button in my dies...I have no need to lube the neck.

If I'm using a full length body die I just lightly touch the bottom two thirds of the case walls with some Imperial sizing wax and lightly lube the inside of the neck with a nylon brush.

I guess some of you girls need soot on your cases to tell what your doing....grease them up if you have them girls.

Again, if you’re smoking cases after 3 reloads you can really do whatever you want, hopefully far away from people that aren’t wearing safety glasses or long sleeves.

I full length size my 7 mags, have 6, ain’t got time to sort brass for each one. I load 64 grains of IMR 4350 with a 140 Nosler ballistic tip. That load has shot well in many 7 mags. I hunt, ain’t a paper shooter, except to check before season. I have multiples of several rifles, don’t neck size for any rifle I own.

I cshitcan belted brass after the 4th firing.

I never said I was smoking cases after 3 firings I said the primer pockets start feeling a little loose after 3 or 4 firings when they did I pitched them.

I been handloading since about 1976 or 77....never once have I had any issues with any thing I've handloaded.....each gun is a different animal when you're loading hot.
At the first sign of pressure I always back off a little.

I don't remember the exact load I was shooting in my 24" barreled 7mm Rem. magnum I do recall the velocity I was shooting. The 5 shot average over a PACT chronograph was 3325 fps with Reloader 19 and a 140 gr. Nosler Ballitic tip the powder charge was a little over recommended max....I was set up .010 off the lands.


With a160 gr. Nosler Partition I was averaging a little over 3200 fps with Hodgedon 1000 I cam recall of the powder charge was over the recommended max and both loads shot to the same point of impact at 100 yards..

You girls should stick to your pip squeak Creedmores...I hear their cases last forever.

These guys act like a 7 mag is a target gun....

Sounds like you been drinking too much Goat sizum Slick...

You seem to be gender confused...first we're girls, then we're guys.

Doesn't say good things about your judgment. But you do you.

I bet you bozos use Lee dies with O rings....

If you’re getting 3200 with a 160 and any powder out of a 24” barrel you’re putting the berries to it. I shoot bigger cases 7mms and that’d smoke my stuff out of longer barrels.

It’s your rifle and such so I don’t rightly care how you use your stuff. Don’t take it the wrong way, I like to run my stuff to what it’s capable of. I just don’t believe hammering my guns and brass adds anything to the gunfight.
