I loaded this type of brass for a 3006.I found it very hard to trim, has anyone else reloaded this type of brass?

    That nickel plated brass is harder than the hubs of hell, most people don't bother to reload it because of that.
    It wears out dies quicker than normal brass.
    You can't see splits or the start of case seperation until it's to late..
    It's just more bother than it's worth to reload it in my opinion.


    Gun control is hitting what your aiming at.

    It is hard, but doable. I have use it in 243. If you just neck size it will be fine.

    I prefer nickel plated rifle brass for reloading, and have loaded it for years. I've never had any of the problems "everyone" claims to plague nickel plated brass.
