A 45 acp case would need to shrink to make this bullet at .457-458 swaging. A 45 acp case is probably around .475 at the base of the case. With the taper in the case walls it would be a heavy jacket...

Good Job.
I have been going to try the nylon tipped set screws and just tap them into cases. 5/16 24 may work for most cases.

I put a lot of wax bullets thru my 2 snubbies learning to shoot them. Were very accurate. Another plus is the wax bullets can be recovered cast back into blocks and reused. My bullets were Canning...

My reason for using them wasnt for the massive destruction. It was being in a some what populated area I wanted to cut down as much as possible on ricochets.this was a issue with the 180 grn nosler...

Above all this is also to be fun dont push him to hard that the fun aspect is lost. As long as the next match is as good as or better than the last hes doing great.

Heres another thing in position shooting a good sling or cuff can really steady up the position, as can a shooting glove.

Ive used the 125 nosler ballistic tips with good results in my number 1 in 300 win mag. Fillets woodchucks out to 300 yds. I hunted wood chucks with this rifle getting ready for several hunts.

Practice have him learn to call his shots trigger squeeze and follow thru.
Practice, even dry fire will help with positions. Learn to get a position that is Natural point of aim. the rifle just...

Aluminum foil will be very hard to get to wrap flat and grip the bullet well.
Aluminum is abrasive in itself.this and the sharp edges from cutting will be hard on the old softer barrels.

I would need to see the sight up close but the sight appears to be removable. a new upper could be made with the aperture. wouldnt be the best that far from the eye but might work better for you. Is...

Wash them good a couple times before applying anything. I would try the rit dye first as it will stay more flexible than paint. Streak or blot with a cotton ball or a couple cheap sponges cut to...

For pins and screws or threads you can form a cup with clay and fill it. For outside surfaces a capped piece of pvc tubing close to size.Or a trick I have used is a cheese cloth or light cloth...

You might try gun parts in West Hurley New York for an original. Or the Log Cabin shop in southern Ohio for an original.
Or On Line metals for a piece of stainless to make one from scratch.

When you consider what a guided big game hunt would cost, and only firing a few shots and maybe some fishing compared to this and the amount of shooting you did.
Could you have sent the guns UPS to...

You might consider adding a location to your ID. But glad to have you aboard.

Couple things caught my eye here. the "blind" end on the small dia appears to be a drill point. The venting is a different pattern from whats normally seen. What im thinking is the small diameter is...

If the extractors are pulling over the rim Id check the holes for them and replace the springs

If you can the first step is an 1/8" hole thru on center line and a measured distance from back edge. This is the xo-y0 and used to recatch the block / base when flipping over or setting up again. If...

I have made up several lee cutters for friends like this. I mount the case holder in a block and then the cutter case gauge can be mounted in the spindle of a drill press.
