    How to reverse brass dezincification with no tumbler

    Yes, but i scrubbed the cases with some brasso and that shined them back up. Im just wondering if theres some way i can soak them so i get the interior, too, and so im not scrubbing each case. The zinc is only gone from the surface, not the whole case.

    How to reverse brass dezincification with no tumbler

    So i was cleaning brass in my sonic cleaner, and it came out pinkish. Found out i used too much vinegar and stripped the zinc from the surface. What is a good homemade chemical solution i can do to restore the luster? I do not have a tumbler no interest in getting one. Any ideas?

    handloaded 5.56 ammo not extracting

    Thank you all so much! I'm gonna try screwing the die down a bit further on some brass tonight and seeing if that doesn't fix it! Should I pull the rounds i already loaded, or shoot them off one at a time if they will still go into battery? (would still be useful to use them to check and see...

    handloaded 5.56 ammo not extracting

    1 to 3 is correct. Step 4 is, i pull the CH back, but the round does not come with it. It does try to chamber the next round. I can drop the mag, the next round falls out. If i hold the bolt open and the rifle up, the chambered round falls freely out. I am sizing with an rcbs FL 'xdie'...

    handloaded 5.56 ammo not extracting

    How did you adjust it? From what im reading, it's looking like i shouldve got a small base die set but i think it's too late to change now. Is there a way to make a FL die set work?

    handloaded 5.56 ammo not extracting

    I did trim them using a lyman EZ trim. I didnt measure after trimming, probably should have. Also, can someone explain how the sizer (which adjusts the case neck) would affect the case rim and the extractor's ability to clamp the rim?

    handloaded 5.56 ammo not extracting

    Ill get some pics when i get home from work. One thought that occured to me: could case lube cause this? I didnt wipe case lube after sizing them.

    handloaded 5.56 ammo not extracting

    So, I made my first handloads of 5.56 ammo tonight. I put them in my rifle to make sure they would chamber properly; they did, but when i pulled the CH back on my AR to cycle the next round to make sure they would cycle, the round in chamber would not extract. The next round would still try to...
