Prepping brass sucks!
Yes it does! I recently bought 1000 pieces of "fully prepped" 300BO from a member here on ODT. Discovered 80% would not seat fully in my LE Wilson gage. Most were trimmed to 1.368" (the absolute max) so no chance of loading more than once without re-trimming. Way too many were 1.4" or more. A few were too short and a few had split necks. So, I re-prepped all 1000. My advice with 300BO...just buy new cases and prep as needed.
I agree prepping brass does suck, It sucked so bad that I bought another press to do it. So now it’s not as bad at all, now when I prep and load now I never have to touch anything. It’s all done on 2 separate presses, but it still does suck.
