HBN coating the bullets will cure this issue. Watch Broz video on YouTube about HBN. Long range only YouTube page
The better question, has anyone had a cold weld on new brass that hasn't had any lube applied to it?honest question, why doesnt factory loaded ammo have this "cold weld" problem?

the problem won't show up on a target until~ at least 500 yards and most people who shoot factory ammo don't shoot that far. Run a 50fps difference in speed thru your calculator and see the difference in drops.honest question, why doesnt factory loaded ammo have this "cold weld" problem?
but some guys are claiming that cold weld caused case head separations or neck splits , and even detonation which damaged the gun in some cases----some factory ammo sits there for 15-20 years before it gets shot (OR EVEN LONGER), just trying to figure out why it doesn't seem to be a big issue with factory ammothe problem won't show up on a target until~ at least 500 yards and most people who shoot factory ammo don't shoot that far.

Have you noticed a decrease in vertical dispersion or es? I haven't tested it or others, other than a 5 round test of imperial case lubes (wax) just to isolate a sticky carbon issue.HBN and those problems go away!!!
It not only does both of those, cold bore shots are always in the group. Really not a big deal in matches, but it is in long range hunting. It does have some downsides, mostly in the coating process, but performance is flawless. Maybe we should start a new threadHave you noticed a decrease in vertical dispersion or es?
