Hello all new to the forum!
I have a question I cant seem to get a definitive answer to. I’ve been reloading for awhile now, I know all the benefits of carbide pistol dies and use them for every one of my cartridges I shoot.
With my 460 S&W I’ve been using Hornady brass, and on my fourth reload I had a case head separation. During my inspection of the brass before that reload I didn’t see any signs of imminent separation and was surprised it split on just its fourth reload.
My question is if I use a steel resizing die will it increase the brass life somewhat? I know the steel die won’t size the body nearly as much as a carbide die would. Thanks for any advice.
