I am looking for a local brass processing service.
To process my brass .223 brass to .20 practical.

Convert the brass or "convert" to loaded ammunition?

 

[GrayGoose]

What's .20 practical?

 

[Xmark1]

What's .20 practical?

Practically .20

 

[Nosferatu]

What's .20 practical?

.223 necked down to .204

Seems like all you need to do to size them is run them though the proper sizing die. Seems simple enough.

You might reach out to Nosferatu Brass Processing. I'm not sure where he's located, he's neither here nor there.

A little north of me, which is miles away from ordinary.

Sounds nice. I think I'd take Ordinary, Montana over usual Oregon by now. Maybe I'll sellout and join you two.

Sorry friend! Border's closed!

Would you permit me to buy you a membership to NWFA?

Absolutely! BUT, I can't guarantee anything about the border. Jus' sayin'.

Are you in the habit of letting men you don't know pay your way? Jus' sayin'.

He probably wouldn't like the outcome, as anything metal that's otherwise useless to me ends up in the forge.

Unless he likes burnt brass bricks, then I'm his man!

Absolutely! If they're silly enough to waste their money on lost causes who am I to tell them no?

Not having a need for this service, I didn't know there are firms that will process brass for hire. But I looked in Google, there they are. I don't know if they do conversions, but many advertise .223 processing specifically. Of course conversion to .20 is more involved. If you call around to some of these places, they may offer the service or know of someone else who does it.

.223 brass is fairly thin, as rifle brass goes. But the smaller you go, the closer the tolerances get. So I'm thinking that neck turning might be necessary to get a .20 Practical out of a stock .223.

.20 Practical reminds me of the earlier, .17 - 223. I saw one of these rifles the other day in a local gun shop. One of the few (if not the only) factory made rifles in this cartridge, a Sako L461 with an H&R rollmark. There was a time when .17 was the latest thing, I think starting around late 1960's to early 1970's. Including the .17 Rem.

What else have these men purchased for you?

 

[NeoBlackdog]

Nobody bought me anything, but I do recall you making an offer.

Good! You don't have a habit of men buying things for you then.
