One time price reduction. Great deal on some very good jackets. Easily less than half the price you'd pay for anything else out there right now.

If ya buy both I'll cover shipping :) Trying to get some funds together to do a little shop reorganization!

SOLD!
With my 6.5 dies sold and not a lot of time for bullet swaging I decided I'll let some of my stockpile of jackets go. I may be listing more later but for now I have two bags of 1k jackets...

I purchased these from another member about 7 months ago, pretty sure I sent money the day my daughter was born. :) Surprise surprise, I haven't had a chance to use them yet. My pen turning side...

Both sample bullets I have measure .4515
The point form die is set up to make hollow point bullets. If you want the xtp style grooves you just need to add that die.
Here are the bullet...

Here's a good thread for reference: http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?t=132183. Only thing missing is the notching die (I have it but plan on keeping it for other calibers I swage)

I'll measure the sample bullets later this morning but weight can vary based on jacket length. If you need heavy bullets you buy longer jackets. I believe a standard 230 is easily made with 40 brass...

I picked these up a couple years ago with intention of swaging 45 but never got around to it. This is the 2 die set ( Core seat + Point form) plus the expanding mandrel to convert 40 into jackets and...

I've had these for a while and now that I'm swaging my own 30 cal I'm not likely to shoot them any time soon. Looking to get a little dinero back to use for other projects so they're up for grabs....

I've got an example bullet from BT made from 45 acp that looks good. For when you want to "plink" with the hand canon...

Ok folks... $380. I know you swage guys have seen this by now. These will clean up just find. Only real issue is the extra punch for point form and that's really not needed anyways. Let's get these...
Forum: Completed Deals
Monday bump. Heck I'll take a bit of a loss and sell for $400. That's what the core swage and a single point form die would cost I believe.

Recently acquired these from a fellow forum member but we just got whacked with another medical bill for our baby girl so they've gotta go. I didn't have a chance to swage anything with these and...

Ah, that makes too much sense. I figured commercial mauser but didn't look at the pictures of the mark x and kept looking at FN, etc. Guess I need a new rifle to go with my new trigger.

Here's the other side. Single set with a safety but not sure if that was factory or custom. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170522/573698e005790e26a6b6e2cf72c2bbd3.jpg

I've got an older Canjar catalog and several triggers but I've not seen this model listed. It's the mmx-1 mauser trigger. With only one commercial mauser in the safe that already has a Canjar I...

Well... 30-06 and 308 have the same diameter so... Use whatever is cheaper. (308 blanks maybe?)

Bill, I think they call it a 300 blackout ;) I don't know of anyone making a fast twist carbine barrel.

Here's the bullets I make with the round nose. There is a little taper but I think they'd feed in the appropriate weight. http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?t=308858

Yep, round nose profile will let you use lead tip. I've got a trim set to trim down 5.7 brass but I haven't played with it yet to get an idea on weights. My 30 cal set does have a point finishing...

I've got a round nose profile I use for heavy 30 cal but I don't see why it wouldn't work for the 5.7 bullets. Thing is, might be a bit heavy for caliber unless you trim them.

Now now... no reason to turn this into a battle.
There's a BIG difference in price between a hand cranked tool and a powered machine.
