Fireform 7,62x54R brass; use a fastburning powser and a filler (cream of wheat or simillar) and fire with muzzel pointing straight up. Annealing is always good.

Anyone who has a trick for makeshift reamer for a 410? Or any tips about a source for a reamer wich does not cost the same as new singel barell shotgun?

All swedish-made RBs have a steel reciver, some very early ones has iron barrels mounted on US made recivers.

Would it be possible to anneal and open up 7,62x54R-brass? Works a charm with the 8x58RD wich also has this beveled edge.
