Those lines appear to be a result of steel cases wearing on the steel funnel. Take a magnet and check the cases you are loading for steel plated brass cases. Xtream has been selling these as brass. Not sure why they would do so but they are trouble.
I'm looking for an accurate load for my new X5 that makes IDPA power factor or better. I have blue bullets of 124, 135 and 147gr. at (.355 and .356) and a good selection of powders. The barrel is stock.
Thanks for your input.
Yea I got one coming tomorrow from Top Gun.
There not holding out for the NRA Convention. But I have a sneaking suspicion that Grey Guns is so that they will have inventory for the show.
I recently got a wet dry media seperator from Frankford Arsenal that does a great job.
You dump the wet brass and pins from the drum and fill it 3/4 way with water. The water rinses the brass and also removes the pins. The pins end up In the bottom pan and to strain the water from the pins the top has two strainers in it to drain the water off.
