Yesterday was a Lebel day. The idea was to anneal the twenty previously fired cases from a couple of years ago and then break down the next twenty to reload them. Imagine my surprise when I pulled them apart. Yup. Green corrosion at the necks. Some were worst than others as you can see in the pic. T...
