This concept of making jacketed bullets from spent cases fascinates me! I'd dearly love to get a few samples from somebody so I can check them out, and add them to my cartridge/bullet collection.
I can also use them to convince my wife that "see honey, if I bought the tooling then I could make my own bullets from all those cases I'm always dragging home, and never have to buy any again!" Heh.
I'm not looking for a bunch, just one is fine. Or one each of several types, so I can see just what is possible.
What I'd like -
A .223 bullet made from a spent .22lr case.
Any bullets made from spent 9mm Luger cases.
Any bullets made from spent .40S&W cases.
Any bullets made from any other spent cases.
Again, I'm not looking for quantities, just a few samples to marvel at, daydream about, and add to my collection.
Any volunteers? Pretty please? I'm almost done processing approx. 5K .223 cases, and I'm gonna need bullets for 'em someday. Hate to buy them if I could realistically make my own!
