Hi guys. I bought some Remington Nickle plated .223 brass a while ago and now just got around to thinking about doing something with it. I FL sized it and took a look at the case mouth, they seem a little raggity on the edge. normally I would trimm and debur brass, but I was wondering if I should do this with the Nickle plated stuff or not. I trimmed one case and could see the brass core. I was thinking perhaps if I did this to the rest, it could perpetuate the nickle plating coming off or something like that. Thoughts? | ||

You will certainly get down to the brass, but, having neck turned quite a few nickel cases in 308, it has not led to the rest of the nickel plate coming off. Peter.

a camfer tool should clean the mouths right up without having to trim them.. I don't neck turn my stuff.. with my rifles and my trigger finger, it isn't worth the time.. sort of like putting high test in a VW...doesn't make it go any faster or run any better.. I shoot a lot of nickel 223 brass, and I just camfer new cases after resizing them for the first time.. and frequently I just use the neck sizer Lee dies for that instead of full length resizing them...

I trim my nickel plated brass for my .357 Mag and for my .243 with no ill effects. Yes, I can see the brass, too, but it has not perpetuated the nickel coming off the rest of the case. Red C. Everything I say is fully substantiated by my own opinion. | |||
