I'd cook some up but I don't have any quail.

I'm thinking make up a big pot of filing, then brown them Quail whole and them drop em in the pot and let cook for a couple hours, then drop them biscuits in. What ya'll think?

Quail pot pie? Hmmm

Doesn't that make it a dumpling? No matter it sounds really good.

I love pot pies. Especially home made.

1 am, 4 am, and between 6 and 7 am.

Fired off some rounds trimmed to minimum length (2.185) in both new brass and fired brass I resized to the chamber. I also fired brass trimmed to 2.200 on resized brass and untrimmed (2.195) new brass. Only the the new brass ended up with the tip of the neck tapered after firing. What the...

Guy, a hunt with an old friend is something to be treasured. Must of been a good day. BTW, I had a fellow police officer years ago that was Navy. He was medic attached to a Marine platoon in Vietnam. He never said a negative word about the Marines.

OK, so here is where I'm at, I scrubbed the throat and the little taper on the fired cases persist. I did a dimensional check on the brass and found everything within spec. The cases were all new and unfired cases (Hornady flavor). The cases measured 2.195 before firing and 2.200 after. Of...

I recently changed brass on my 130 gr Partition load from Winchester to Nosler. The Win case was loaded with 55 grs of Reloder 16 and muzzle velocity was 3110 fps or so. I tried 55.5 gut it badly flattened primers so I backed off. 56.0 was the max load according to Aliants wed site. When I...

The Navy wouldn't take my father because he was too young so he went to the merchant academy on Catalina Island and then went to sea on a merchant ship. He was 16. He turned 18 carrying ammo to the navy gun crew on his liberty ship off Okinawa. He went through that typhoon that Halsey sent...

Those look fine and I haven't a clue about how to use one nor do I hunt turkeys.

Yeah, but it's dry heat! 🤣

Scotty that little taper mics out at 005" at the tip less than the neck. It goes away when the case is resized.

I have one pound of Reloder 22 and it has 257 Roberts written on the label. It's the only powder that makes my Bob smoke with 110 Accubond.

It took me a while to remember back when I might have had only four powders on the shelf. It must have been IMR 3031 for 30-30 win, IMR 4350 for 243Win, IMR 4895 for 30-06 semi auto, and my first Hodgdon powder 4831 for 270win and 30-06 bolt. Shortly after that came powders for handguns and...

Seeing as the necks are always blackened after being fired I'm leaning on fouling. I'll get back after I give it a good scrubbing and shoot some more.

I'm gonna give the throat an good scrubbing with a carbon remover and see if it repeats.

These were new cases that I neck sized and deburred and i.d. chamfered. After firing they're still shorter than max.

I have a new lamp on my reloading bench with a large magnifying glass and on my last batch of fired 220 swift brass I noticed an irregularity on the tip edge of the neck. It appears that the first hundredth or so is tapered after firing. I can't say for sure if this has been occurring all...
