NEW BRASS

Well, thanks to the most generous help of a member of the forum (I mention no names BUT if they are happy to be identified then they can let me know and I will edit the post) I am now in possession of 50 new .35 Whelen cases.
Decided to test 20 to start with so have re-sized them to 8x60 and cropped 3mm from the neck. The shoulder of the Whelen cases is not as well defined as the RWS 8x60 that I have but I hope that it will improve by fireforming.

They feed and chamber OK with no apparent difference to the RWS so fingers crossed for Sunday.
