Hey Fellers,
I see some members are making their own dies and using H frame shop press to extrude lead wire to a determined diameter.
Would someone who is doing this operation please post pics and a 'how to' post on this processes please?
I would like to make a lead mold of about .5" x 6" and use this as my 'billet' to be used in the shop press.
Dies I would like to make would be ones that extrude lead wire suitable for .357/ .38, 9mm and 45-70 at this stage.
Any detailed advice appreciated.
Mike
