    I just googled it and it seems like a lot of work, I have a handful of s&ab and PPU cases I won't be using if you want to give it a try.

    Would appreciate that Liam. I have been told the PPU cases are the best for reforming so would like to give them a go.

    Brendan your inbox is full but send me your address. There may be only a few ppu but it might give you an idea if it's viable before getting more. Also check the bins at the club as a lot of people still don't reload and just in their brass.

    Nah, I use a Redding F/L bushing die with no bushing which takes the neck to about 0.2". I then put the bushing back in and size completely. It needs trimming annealing before fireforming.
