EDITTED POSTING = I was premature in asking for assistance. I need to re-chamber my old wore out barrel and install on action in a manner to be exact to my current match chamber. Reason is that I would be damaging my match barrel's rifling during fireforming. Also as part of the project is re-barreling a second match rifle to same exacting standards. Thus fire forming will allow completed brass to be used in either gun.

Next time I will give more warning time if others want to shoot a 50BMG target rifle. I have 175 pcs of TZZ brass, 173 pcs of IK07 brass, 60 pcs of IK98 brass, and 193 pcs of LC09 brass that need to be fireformed. I will load mild loads with ball projectiles to keep cost down. Sure wish we had more range to shoot, but it is easy to see bullet holes at 200 yards with 0.510 holes.

Any one want to volunteer to help fireform brass? PM me if interested. It will be next Spring before all barrels are cut and ammo loaded. Any one want to help reload?

Current health conditions are slowing me down.
