Tubing Jacket Questions

[Darth-Vang]

Was wondering if tubing Jackets made from another brand say BSSP(Bullet Swaging Supply Press) with their particular dies will work in my RCE’s bullet swaging dies? I was told it should work. Would I need a special different punch for my RCE’s dies or should it work regardless?

It depends on the type of bullet you will be making, if you are doing say a JSP or JHP where there is ample lead outside the jacket your normal punches "should" work BUT if you need to seat the core into/below the top of the jacket then you will need specific punches to fit inside the tubing jacket.

Okay makes sense. I’ll give it a shot and find out.
