[QUOTE="Twmaster, post: 1540667, member: 18774"] I'm going to buy a basic reloading press this summer. I have an 8x57 Mauser, ~20 empty casings, a box of new Speer bullets and a set of new Lee dies. As I intend to reload my 8MM stuff I've been looking into reloading some of the brass from my 380 ACP pistol. While reading up some I've run across conflicting comments about resizing/trimming. I'm aware all cartridges need to run through the resize dies and rifle cartridges need to be trimmed. Some of what I've read says to trim pistol cartridges. Some say no need to trim. What's the skinny here? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
