    Might help if we knew the dimensions, You may be able to modify an existing to the size you seek.

    I am working with brass jackets that start out at .457 which may need .010 or less but I am striving for a consistent length between .055 to 1.20 depending on the brass and the initial case trim. I may want to make half jackets for .40 to .458. This is a thought, more an experiment with the massive amount of excess after I swage a special bullet type I like for my SOCOM. I now have 3 large freight boxes w/ .308/30-06 scrap brass and a 22# box of scrap brass NATO like I've never seen before.
    As far as the collect I don't have the trimmer to base the basic design.
