Problems resizing 7.62 x 39 brass

I got lucky a few years back and found Widener's had new IMI 7.62x39 brass for sale. I bought 1000 pieces so I have plenty for my AR-47 and my Enfield K.
You gotta hunt to find some of this stuff.
 
CFE BLK has been the fastest and most accurate powder I've tried in my x39. I've tried several and CFE BLK beats them all. More than 2400fps in a 16" barrel with a 123 is fairly impressive to me.

I've got a bunch of it and 1680 arriving Monday. Any particular recipe you found that your 16" barrel favors that you would like to share?;):)
 
Although I like 2400 for most of my cast loads in the SKS rifle,Reloader #7 is great for both jacketed as well as cast if you just want to use one powder,I'm there are several others that do just as well but it's what works for me.

I always like to try new powders though so I picked up a lb. of CFE Black but haven't had time to test any loads yet. From what I read it looks promising as it nice to have backups.

He is a test target I shot in my Yugo SKS several years ago when I could get my hands on AA-1680.

Stag my X39 upper likes 28.8 grains of CFE BLK with any .310 123 grain bullet I've tried. Over 2400fps easy on brass and accurate. I can't complain

Cool--thanks for that. I'm about to make a post on shooting budget stuff--you might find it entertaining.;)
 
Well the CFE BLK arrived today and I promptly whipped up a ladder of 125 gr remington SP's. The bullets arrived rather bashed up--what I'd normally expect as factory seconds--but remmie is what remmie is I guess.
