Nickel coated brass.

[BLUEDOT 72]

Thanks all who responded to my query! Guess I was on the right track. The main reason I had the 7-30 Nickel Brass was cause I was also shooting a 30-30 Contender and I thought that it would be simpler to keep them straight. Now, I don't have the 30-30 anymore so I now have no excuse to use the nickel. I am so used to shooting "many" reloads as long as I annealed the necks every now and then so I was truly flabergasted when the 7-30 brass failed after not too many reloads.

Thanks again for the advise and help.
