Case Trimming:
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 лис 2023
- Originally premiered on Patreon Feb, 2020:
Randy demonstrates his method for trimming a rifle case, using a 6MM PPC case, on one of his lathes.
And NO, he is in no danger working on this lather or his other by wearing long sleeve shirts. He operates very, very safely, has been doing this for over 50 years, wearing long sleeves at his machinery in cool/cold months, and never even a close call. Because he knows how to operate safely while wearing long sleeves.
God bless!

thanks Randy, best analysis of neck trimming yet
I for one really like watching and seeing all the knowledge you have to show us different things. Thank you for all Sir.
Mr. & Mrs. Selby, thank you for sharing a small part of you legacy. I started reloading at 12, shotgun only. I started machining, at 20. Tool and die at 23. Alaskan pipeline valves at 22. Jim Carmichael was my 1st mentor. Nowhere nere your expertise, but humble. I hope you have children or granchildren to pass on part of your world. Hope to meet you 2 and have dinner with you soon since I'm an old man. Haha. Gerald.
Good morning Cathy and Randy. Thanks for the most understandable video on neck turning and the "dreaded donut". My confusion comes in understanding the difference between a "skosh" and a "titch". 😆 Thanks again.
A titch may be one-half of a skosh, or a third of a smidgen. ;) Or not.
Thanks for watching
@@TheRealGunsmith Thank you for the clarification.👍
Excellent information Mr. Selby. I greatly thank you.
Some maybe confused with case trimming when it is neck turning what you are doing.
Wish you could add some close up pics or video of the results. Great video as always
Thanks Randy and Mrs Shelby
Very informative for precision shooting. Long range varmint shooter myself and I love the knowledge shared! Precision placement of the bullet is one of many factors that can make or break a shot. This is golden information!
Amazing ! This makes so much sense.
Randy trims his a skosh. I trim mine a smidge!!
Regional dialects/terms are fascinating, aren't they?
Thanks for watching.
That shirt sleeve running close to that chuck makes me worry…
That shirt sleeve or others like it, in cool months, has been there for over 50 years and no worries, no close calls. That is because I pay VERY close attention to that I am doing.
Thanks for watching.
You’re a valuable resource of knowledge and I don’t want to see you hurt Randy
@@Jack-ur5or Appreciate your concern. As mentioned, never any close calls, as I pay attention each moment and the old time tool/die maker machinists I worked with over the years, wore long sleeves [as we all like to work in cool shops] and never a mishap or close call. Thanks!
People have no concept of what happens to brass during firing. My 1st experiance was a .300 Winchester Mag. That my wife Darlene bought for me. A Model 70. Gerald.
6mm ppc might just do for easy shooting sounds like a rifle I’d love to shoot. Love your hands on approach
Ive got an old Speer loading book from the 1970's. If i recall correctly Speer imported their bullets from Lapua for the 6mm PPC. Read that as a child but no idea why i remember it as ive no use or experiance with 6mm PPC, but even so.
I’d would love to here a video about what brass you recommend as far as the tolerances you’ve seen from the different manufacturer’s. Thank you both for the great information
There are so much that varies for each chamber, caliber and manfacturer. I am not sure it could be inclusive enough.
I'll take your suggestion under advisement, though. Thanks for watching.
@@TheRealGunsmith do you have a recommendation on brass manufacturer?or does it not make that much of a difference as Lino as you are preparing it properly

Wow extremely interesting , off topic but could you express your opinion on the difference between H 870 and WC 870 and possibly comment on WC 872 . Your knowledge is absolutely priceless !….. Thanks so much .
I reload for hunting and target shooting my dad loads for one of them total custom 6ppc and that is a whole different ball game I've been loading for years and i can't load like he does his loading tools are completely different i wouldn't know what to do with half his loading tools and he does shoot alot of rounds in the same hole you don't even have to spot for him you just wait for the shot and say bullseye.
Be careful with long sleeves around that chuck. A coworker almost lost his arm like that years ago. Others lost alot more because of clothes getting caught in machinery.
Great video sr thanks for the in fo i would like to hear your thoughts on the p,o ackley 25 ,06. With protruding rifleing
I am not sure what you are referring to as to "protruding rifling."
A full skosh?
Yep. Not a 1/2 of a skosh! ;)
Thanks Cathy!❤
Randy I have a question that you might can answer . In my neck of the country utah some guys claim they wouldn't think of shooting a new rifle without fire lapping the barrel I've never done it to any of mine and don't think it's needed at all if you don't know what it is .I think it's you shoot a dipped bullet in polishing compound shoot the gun clean it then repeat 10 times would you think it would make much difference .
The quickest way to ruin a barrel is to fire lap it, a stupid and unnecessary process. All match quality barrels are lapped when they are made.
Thanks for watching.
@@TheRealGunsmith thanks for the reply you said just what I was thinking .it didn't make much sense to me because most barrels are test fired when made . I have a friend named Lee bunce who's a master rifle maker he's retired but back when he was building guns he said shilan barrels were one of the best do they still even make barrels
Randy,
Great video. A few questions, as if you don't have enough of themtraded!!!!!!!
1) do you resize every time you shoot these cartridges? If so, do you run the chance of the neck brass becoming to thin?
2) you talked about the tight tolerances on the 6mm target load. Do you feel this is too tight for a hunting round? Or not necessary for hunting!
3) you mentioned 5 thousands difference on a standard load vs. a fired load. I understand your explanation on not trimming the neck...but if this is the case....then the accuracy is trashed!!!!!!! Or is there a way to rectify the accuracy?
Great job, Cathy as well.
Chip
As much time that it takes per bullet would cost mucho monies..... just sayn'
Long sleeves and machine tools is asking for trouble!!!!
That shirt sleeve or others like it, in cool months, has been there for over 50 years and no worries, no close calls. That is because I pay VERY close attention to that I am doing.
Thanks for watching.
Also, after 58 years of working on all kinds of mills, laths and other equipment, as mentioned, not even any close calls, but in the summer, with short sleeves, I've had hot chips land on my bare arm and cause burns. Never had a burn from a hot chip when I am wearing long sleeves. A few holes in the sleeves, but that is minor.
Responsible hunting ranges, both for the hunter’s and bullets ability and limitations make bench rest precision irrelevant.
Yes. It’s always smart to use less accurate ammunition.
Who cares about hitting? 😂
