I just started shooting cast rifle slugs w/gas checks. I had picked up two round tins of horandy gas checks about 1600. I worked with two bullet designs and started on second full tin and thought I would get another thousand checks.
The old hornady checks I have been using measured .021 thickness, the thickest I have been able to find is .017
now for the questions
does anyone make .021 copper checks?
has anyone had experience changing check thickness?
I got this note from hornady
"the thickness of the gas check is .017 and has been this thickness for all the time of production. Thanks"
