Give me some dimensions on the one you turn out of steel, ID, OD, OAL.... What type of stainless steel and what type of brass?

This one i made from 1045 CR steel i'll be making them from SS and Brass after i order it the lenght is 3.250" the rim is 1.025" dia the base dia is .925 and the end is .915 and the id is .935 i had wrote the wrong size on the picture the rim thickness is .095 I had use the diminsions of the shell i had because it fits into the cannon and mis as well stick with that since i don't have the cannon for the chamber dia. I have the diminsions from a user that posted them here on my earlier post on this.

Also this take about and hour to complete in your opinion how much do you think i should charge for them I'm sure after i make the jigs for doing he work the time will be less and i have the CNC program made now also But i don't want to give them away and also i don't want to over charge for them they are a hard item to find. I may also make 4 gauge 12 gUGE AND 10 GAUGE if they sell is there a forum here that just deals in case's / Hull

Thanks again Austin :-D The Cannon Man :mrgreen:

I know little to nothing about the application, but I would think they would be dear. It's hardly a high volume item, is it?
