I haven't loaded for the 30-30 before. Picked up a Win 94 at a show a few years ago, and then a batch of brass off the gunbroker site, or maybe is was the othe egay site when they still did it. Tumbled all brass, some still a bit dark, but shootable. Micced all brass (about 750) last night to avoid trimming if not necessary. About 1/3 needed it. Got out the old LEE trimmer, I chuck my cutter and pin in a Milwaukee 1/2 drill and just hold onto the brass. Holy cow, it just kept cutting on down, took at least another 1/8" off of what max coal should be. Most of what micced good was 2.037 and below, I chose to trim the rest to bring all into same range. After trimming the first one, it looks almost like a .308 round(short neck) with a rim on the bottom. I gots a notion to go out and see just how much farther it will cut it down.
Why isn't my flach hole stop doing it's job. Are some cases made differently in the flash hole where it would let the guaging pin go down farther? I've never seen this before.
