Nickel VS copper brass...

[Pat911]

Hi guys, is there a difference between nickel and copper brass when you reload??? Can I just use the same spec as I usually do?


Thanks

Pat

Yes, providing it is from the same manufacture.

"...nickel and copper brass..." There's nickel plated and brass cases. They both get sized the same way.

The thing to be careful of is, if the plating starts to FLAKE off, dump that piece of brass.

It will wear off, but that's OK.

The sizing process is harder on plated over plain brass.

It's also harder on the dies, and riflecases still need lubing.
