When I get a chance I will measure some of the brass from the drilling. I have reloaded some of the brass 2 times with out problems. I use starting loads from the manual, as I do not want to wear the gun out unnecessarily.
I have pulled a major coup. Since she will be hunting the BIG BUCK this year she will use a 308 Bolt Rifle and I will concentrate on ducks. So every morning I will be on the Duck Pond with the Drilling

. Then I will sneak around looking for a coyote and prowling the river for a few more ducks. I will also stalk up and shoot a Turkey or two. They are a lot of fun to hunt this way.
