I know there are variables on this question, so I will stick with .224 for now.
In a nut shell how I am stepping off into this. Went to the last day of an estate sale, everything was 1/2 off or more. There were lots of die sets there. None in boxes all were in zipper bags. I picked up what I was interested in or had use for. Lady came by and said take them all and she would make me a heck of a deal. I won't say what I gave per set, as y'all would give me a pet name,lol.
There was a complete set of Corbin 7/8x14 type swaging dies for 22's from 22rf.
Subject at hand, cores. Cast slugs or cut wire, is one better than the other.
I have a bunch of dead soft, along with other alloys. So I am leaning towards a mold.
I have access to a mill and have my own lathe. So I am thinking an adjustable mold to change up on weights.
Thanks
Jeff
