Charlie made me a new FCIII 9.3 check tool. Need some checks tested for fit and trim! Any testers? Send private PM with shipping address. I will ship you some free with only feedback, as a necessary payback. Thanks James

Charlie said the tools he made for a Swedish customer started with a .342 shank and went up to about .347. All depending on mold s he used. The FCIII he built is coming with mutiple mandrels to cover a broad range. The checks will made with .014 material and can be sized up to .370 O.D. Take .014 x 2 +.347=.375. Plenty of material to size down to .366. Checking the .375 FCIII to see if it can be used on the NOE 9.3 with the larger shank. James

Sagebrush--

I'm willing to try a test drive on these checks. The boolit involved is a Mountain Molds 270 grain design that specs a .375 GC. Hornady .375 checks have done good work to date, though they take on a "convex" aspect when seated. Check for PM.
