Im new to reloading ... Does this sound weird ??

... Thanks !! Spelling and grammar isnt a strong spoint haha. Yes im going with a guy local as a first try. He says he wants to see brass first before he will give me a price. Im gonna do about tree cases in .35 rem so i can do a few different tests. Like im sure you read. Gitting a primer in is going to be the trickest part i think. So ill full length size after plating and see how that works in a chamber, see how the primmer goes, make a few light loads. And i is a trusted .35 of mine ... So were good.

I will say im a little lost as to why everyone is so concerned with how fast things progress in my life tho. If your that ancy then by all means have some fun do it yourself, and post some pictures. In the mean time, im not planning on plating 100 casing to find out its not gonna work either ... Ill do three. Maybe ill have them back next week, hard to say when my work schedule will permit it soooooo. Dont hold your breath. Ill post my post. If you have something constructive to offer ?????

I don't think anyone is concerned about your life. You put questions on the forum and asked for advice, and people tried to talk you out of it because they thought it was silly, nothing more.

When you get the brass back, try seating a primer - if that doesn't go well, then try using a swaging tool on the primer pocket and see how the plating stands up. If swaging works it would be easier and faster than reaming.

Iv got my test subjects ready to go. Just did a full length size ... Recorded the measurements of three casings i marked. So my thought was. Compare the numbers before plating and after to see if there is a difference. If there isnt ... Which my guess will be probably wont measure any difference at all. If there is ... Then ill at least have an idea of what to do and whats gonna be the next step. So if all goes well platter will have them friday .

Fyi ... Even my cousin whos gonna help me along with some of the realoding, he though im kinda grazy aswell. But after my explination of what my process will be. Hes gonna do it so im thinking i cant be to far off with things. But hes a box of hand loads in a hr guy. Im a box in a 10 hrs probably more like it haha.
