50 BMG Brass Marks FNB 85 whats the skinny...

I got a buddie that has some of this stuff mixed in with his LC stuff and now has had to separate the these FNB85 out because he keeps breaking decapping pins...

Anyone heard any negative press on these...

Thanks for the info guys...

As I recall that's Fabrique Nationale made brass.
Good brass, but the flash holes are undersized for most US decappers.
The RCBS pin in their die set is narrower and should work.

Ah ha.... Prof. Kubota you have now eased the pain of my friend... any suggestions for opening up the flash hole on those bad boys...

K&M makes a flash hole tool for .50 BMG, chuck it up in a drill and go to town. :bounce:
