I hate you.   I'm still humping a torch.  

 

Did I say I hate you?

I tried this method with some ancient 303 Savage brass. I still had about every other one split a neck in the sizing die. Maybe I didn't do something right.

It takes some trial and error.  

I do it angling the flame out toward the mouth and bring it in slowly.  I spin the cartridge by holding it in my Lee lock stud and a drill on low.  Chase the heat right up to the base of the neck and it should spread to just enough of the shoulder. Takes about ten seconds of heat per case with mapp gas. I use a towel under the drill to catch them in and let them air cool. It works for me.  YMMV.

Ditto this method works ^. Focus more on appearance than time on each case. Goal is to have them the same.

I bought this about three months before the Giraud came out...but actually like it pretty well,  I may trade up someday though.  The Giraud is simple yet effective.

Its my understanding they can't ship outside US, however. Too bad. That's the design I would buy in a hear beat.

It's the one to get.


I like it. It forces you to watch it. It's too easy to walk away from some of the other models and I don't want to burn the house down. LOL I don't think one is better than the other, just different operations to do the same thing. It takes about 4.5 seconds a case , so it goes fast.
