Brass cases are a critical component of a loaded rifle cartridge, and understanding how to properly work with brass cases is a critical aspect of being a safe and successful reloader. In this episode, we discuss what every reloader should know about brass.

We answer the questions...
- "What is the difference between loading with new brass and previously-fired brass?"
- "Is it better to full-length size or 'neck size' brass before loading?"
- "When should I trim, chamfer, and deburr brass cases for loading?"
- "What is the best way to clean brass?"
- And more...
