Jump on it Rich ! Anneal, form and anneal.
You may get 10 firings. Last I looked our ".257 Bob bush" has no more berries to pick.

I wonder if this could be resized back to standard .257 Roberts brass with no ill effects?

Reason I am parting with them - I have enough std 257 (all I have) that I really don't want or need to try and reszie them back to std. Figured if they were already at AI, and someone could use them as is, it was a win.

i got a Bob in the Ackley version, only it has Weatherby shoulders, and i have to slightly re-work regular Ackley brass to make them fit.
it's really a lot easier for me to form them from new 6mm Rem. Brass.

but you can make them into regular brass again, it goes a bit easier if you do it in a 7 Mauser die.

BONUS - another fired batch of 257 AI brass. Fired count is 49. Brings total to 88 round count of AI brass. Same same - Yours all for shipping.

PS: Based on feedback, and that worst case I can reconvert back to 257 std - you guys will not break my heart to keep it all! Just sos ya knows!
