Lazy-H98 Report post Posted July 2, 2019 So I was all set to seat my Accubonds for my 7MM, when I discovered a dent on the shoulder of several brass. First off what causes the shoulder dents? and is it still safe to shoot at the range? I noticed it on the first one and stopped right there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

10Turkeys Report post Posted July 2, 2019 Could be too much lube on your cases when you resize them, could be something is stuck in your die. That dent should blow out when you fire your gun. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PRDATR Report post Posted July 3, 2019 What lube are you using? A little Imperial Sizing Wax works great. The best was when Dillon came out with the spray in the aerosol can but they took it off the market after a few years. When they did I went to Hornady One Shot but it wasn't as good as the Dillon.
