Fire-Form with the Fouler Shots – Save time, bullets, and barrel life

Fire-Form With Foulers — Save Time, Bullets and Barrel lifeFire-Form With FoulersHere is a tip for guys that shoot the 6 PPC cartridges, 6 Dasher cartridges, 6 BRA cartridges,.284 shehane cartridges, or any other wildcat ammunition that requires fire-forming. Use your fouler shot to fire-form new cartridge cases. This way, your fouler rounds do “double duty” and you can fire-form your brass without having to put extra rounds through your expensive rifle barrel. Joel Kendrick is the 2004 IBS 600 yard Shooter of Year. Joel Kendrick knows that it takes at least two or three shots for the bore to foul before accuracy is restored. Joel uses the fouler shots when he shoots his PPC to fire-form new brass. Joel explains, “I like to always have relatively new brass ready. After each barrel-cleaning, I fire-form a couple of cases. By the end of the match weekend, I have a dozen or so freshly-fire-formed cases. You can fire-form your fouler shots without wasting any barrel life. This not only saves on barrel wear but also saves you trips to a range for fire-forming. We thank Joel for his clever suggestion. This should help those who don’t have a barrel dedicated to fire-forming keep their round count down. Note: When using this fouler fire forming routine, it is important to ALWAYS use the SAME POWDER that you use for your match ammo. Joel is currently the Supplier Quality Process Engineering for MMI TruTec, a company which offers barrel surface coatings to extend barrel life.Similar Posts:Tags: 6 Dasher, 6BRA, 6mm BRA, Brass Fire-Forming, Fire-Form, Fire-Forming, Foulers, Fouling Shots, Wildcat
