Anyone know where to get any wssm brass?


Tourist to Alaskan Farmer: Hey, these cabbages are no bigger than the one I grown back home!

Alaskan Farmer's Response: Lady, you are looking at the Brussel Sprouts.

If the "usual suspects" don't have it check GB.

Try Hillbilly Brass, at https://www.hillbillybrass.com/

I've made 223wssm brass from 25 wssm brass, so if you can find any wssm brass, you should be OK.

I have been getting 2-3 reloads out of a case, then a neck splits. Just recently, I've annealed a batch to try and stop the neck splitting, but have not shot any of those yet.

It is probably worthwhile annealing when sizing brass necks up or down in calibre and then regular annealing during use to prolong brass life of less common brass. Can't really go wrong with the annealing process, if over-annealed i.e. brass got too hot and necks too soft, just run through the sizing die a couple of times to harden the neck up a bit.
