Hey BadBob,
Give it a shot (some pun intended), the sks has a 1-10 twist so it should be fine but length is an issue for sure.
I haven't had a chance to do much of anything but try it out in the...

Hey, good idea !
I understand what you were saying, I'll have to model something and see how it looks.
Seems like it would peel back nicely :)

Those are Hornady 30 cal gas checks. They fit fine and when I size to .314 the gas check is crimped on there nicely.

Thankyou Brother.
Keeps me sane (ish).
Welcome Home.

Mal, the idea is fine, my obstacle here is TIME.
If I had the time I would consider it a fun/worthwhile project.
I CAN model the part based on your sketch/drawing and send you the file. That...

Ahhh, kindred spirits !
I use to shoot on rifle teams, use to hunt like a nut.
Now I spend most of my (our) hobby time casting and dreaming up new bullets.

Hey, thanks !
I seem to remember calling in arty in a jam.
105's and 8inch mostly, they'd be just a RUSH SH SH SH through the air, great sound. Now the illumination rounds at night were weird. ...
In a pinch I've used toothpaste, softscrub, etc.
Softscrub is fairly aggressive and scratchy on aluminum and toothpast takes a while to be effective but if you have the time and not much to lap out...

It would be tricky to test.
I guess you'd have to make the mold for the spiral bullet and then make another mold with the same profile, drive bands etc, without the spiral and do some testing....

Well, it's getting closer and closer to the doors closing on June 24 so I've been as busy as I can be.

I had that same issue a few years ago.
I thought I'd dumped the (tainted) stuff but every so often I run into it again.
I wish I could tell what it was that I got into but I'm as much in the dark...
I have three 7.7's, they're all .313-.3135/.302.
Not saying all 7.7's are that consistent. I size them all .314.
My 6.5 japs vary quite a bit more but are still decent shooters with the right...

That's an incredible mold ! I'm sitting here still trying to get my head around which part goes where and which end is up :)
That's cool.

Well, the spiral isn't dead quite yet :)
I have another program I want to try, but I have to hustle.
Thanks for the like on the traditional stuff, we have to have the practical stuff too.

Finished four more, three are pretty conventional but one is somewhat squirrly.
This one is a double cavity. Both are .359 155gr, one has a square grease groove, the other a round grease groove....

Sorry about the response I posted, I guess I'm drifting.
My post has nothing to do with the hollow based dilema.
Geez....

I'm not 100% on this but this does resemble the thing.
Lyman 429348 or some clone.
