    I use my mic all the time! Take good care of it.

    Glad you all seem to like the dies, my production seems to be moving along a bit faster lately. The core seat dies should be done very soon and I may jsut send them out ahead of the point form die. We shall see.

    And for all of you with other calibers on order I am working on those too.

    Thank you all for your support. You'll be shooting your own bullets very soon and be loading bullets while others are lookign at empty shelves!

    Swage On!

    Hope some of you get a chance to shoot a few of those bullets.

    Post some results if you do!

    Seems to get me good results every time.
    Thought you were shooting them out of a full auto so it did not matter anyway?

Sharing does not come easily for swagers, not because they are necessarily selfish, but because they have been whittling away in their only little world for so long, that being able to relate to others what they understand is no simple task."

    I still make em as accurate as I can. Helps in the nose forming die.
    It's easy to match up the components for weight.

    Yep, the primary reason I bought a set of Brian's dies. Just look at the crazy shortage & high prices of 223 bullets lately, now cheap FMJ plinkers are 12-14c each! At that price, my dies will be paid off sooner & I will never run out of bullets in my lifetime, which I hope is another 20yrs of shooting.

    Brian,

    Perhaps I am a bit dense today. I do not see a package price when I look at the first post in this thread.

    there are six items, including shipping, that are needed for the ultimate complete set. just add those numbers up.
    however, some people prefer to buy the tools in a building block manner, for budget reasons. or, they may already have some components on hand.
    so, he gives you the breakdown for each portion.

    Added up, it's a bit of cash.

    BUT...........

    well worth every cent!

    Brian has been incredibly service oriented, and quality focused. His tools are among the best for swaging .224 bullets.

    He continues to push the envelope for design advancement (which none of the commercial competitors are doing), and has the best design, bar none, at the moment!

    His service and support are also second to none in the business. He does everything he can to make sure you are happy with the tools, at every step of the process. This is especially true when you start making parts and swaging them into bullets. Considering how busy he is, he has NOT let that portion of the business slip. Top rate quality, and top rate service and support.

    Yes, I am biased..... but that's why I own MANY sets of BT Sniper' tools, and look forward to receiving more as budget allows.

    I haven't made it that far down my work order list yet. I need to send you the first shipment first. Core mold, instructions, derim die, etc. and then I'll send you the core swage die too in the first shipment as well as any other dies I have ready.

    Thanks for your support and patience.

    No problem Brian. I figured that was the case since every time I check the thread, there is new interest in your products. I've been trying to find some elves for you to help with all the tasks you have, but so far no takers. I'll keep looking tho!

    Just wondering, do you speak for Brian?

    As I said, it says package price. I don't see a price other than a list of components and their regular price. Is that a package price?

    Sorry, I'll edit the orginal post of "package"

    The current 2013 price for everything I have to offer to make 22 cal bullets from 22lr brass is $1190 ($1215 with new Lee Classic Cast Ram top) to your door.

    Thanks

    I hear 223 ammo was going for a $1 a shot at a recent gun show in the midwest and they sold out of all the 1K boxes worth. At that rate it won't take long to justify the cost of making your own. Of course who would pay a dollar a pop to shoot 223? I don't know? Only commercial ammo I ever buy is 22lr.
