Thanks for sharing speedy. Quick question. If I were to shoot a no turn chamber with this brass I have coming what neck size do I need to have my reamer made? From what little info I can come up with I’m guessing g .273? Thanks a ton! Lee Gardner Precision. The PPC is King!!!!!
I would really be interested in the same test using Alpha’s 6Dasher brass ? Since you also shoot the Dasher. Nothing like you shoot the amount of 6PPC but still I’ve heard that you do shoot the Dasher on occasion. Thanks
I do shoot a Dasher! If someone wants me to run the same measurement tests on the Alpha 6mm Dasher brass I would be happy to do so. I currently don't have any Dasher brass of any kind on hand. Most who know me, know that I don't keep anything around that I am not shooting.
@speedygonzalez_x_files not looking to set records here. But is it adequate to be competitive at a club match on a no turn chamber? Any idea what an unturned loaded neck is? Like .270 - .271? Thanks Speedy!
After watching the second part of your video I’m seeing now that Alpha has switched the size of their flash holes. Interesting because when they first came out with the Dasher brass my question was why they had a large flash hole instead of the standard proven Lapua smaller flash hole. Their response was that they had done extensive texting of both sizes and there was no difference. I guess they’ve changed their minds on performance size. Are the pockets still tapered?
Larry, the benchrest community would not buy any of the brass if it had the standard 0.080 flash hole. I you read the original PPC cases development documents, you will read a benefit was discovered in testing that the 0.059 flash hole, was it more metered the flash into the case producing a more uniform pressure curve. Thanks for asking boss!
Thank you very much for giving us a look at Jim's new action.... PLEASE make a video showing your glue in process.......even if its on patreon...I'd pay to learn the speedy way.
Wayne Campbell said he uses jb weld.....and you can't argue with his results... even though i would think there is a newer alternative these days..... But it didn't hurt his scores...
Speedy, not sure if you read these, but I have a Lenzi and the issue with the bar that contacts the ejector at the top of the dies (I am not sure of the technical name for it) can be solved more simply than making a T shaped bar. I just drilled out the threads to a snug fit over the threaded rod and now it is infinitely adjustable with just a little turn of the bottom nut. It still locks up tight and no issues. Just a few minutes to set up on the mill or drill press and yer good to go.
