    Who can make....?

    I am wanting a block of steel or aluminum about like a loading block with 50 holes in it around .499 diameter, although I need to further research that dimension. Its purpose would be to serve sort of like a chamber checker to check the bore ride diameter of 500 S&W bullets I cast to make sure they are not too big around in the bore ride section. The holes have to be real precise as far as diameter and roundness. Anyone know who can make something like this? Thanks in advance.

    It would seem that a block with one hole would cut out a whole lot of variation.

    I believe happy7 is a commercial loader, so one hole would make a REAL bottleneck in production.

    happy7, could you just size all the noses? This is the step I take with all my 7MM, 30 and 35 caliber bullets to assure the nose will "bore ride"

    Bullseye does my machine work for me. Nothing like this. He trims molds and makes powder funnels for me.
