Have brass but can not travel!!

[Bruce_in_Oz]

A friend of mine gave me 2K of Berdan primers that nicely fit the 7.62X39 and Turk 8MM brass. They come 250 primers per sleeve.

They also fit the FN .303 brass!

The RWS 6000 come in cheesy cardboard sleeves of 150. Old stock is in green cardboard, later stuff is grey, like the pic.

My other "enhancement" was to machine up a primer pocket punch. With the case standing inverted on a .30 cal pin, the punch (with an anvil clearance hole in the middle), simply pushes the crimp brass back to a nice radiussed profile like new. I made a similar tool that does "standard" Berdan cases, as well.

I'd be interested to see that punch.
