Bulk Swaging

[Super Sneaky Steve]

I've heard that you can't bulk swage boolits but I gave it the old college try.

Here's 1650 55gr boolits. My lanolin soaked hands are so soft they would make even the most limp wristed homosexual blush. :razz:

After doing so many I have to say that casting is the way to go. I'm glad I have the ability but I don't think I'll be making another big batch for a while. Now that we can't replace primers I'm trying not to shoot much. That leaves extra time to make things we can still make, like boolits.

I am working on a variety of Boolit project this winter. I swaged 1500 .223's and loaded 1200 into prepared brass over the last 30 days. Currently working on 9mm's and .45 ACPs with cast and Powder Coated Boolits.

I'll be deriming and prepping several more thousands of 22LR's for jackets over the next 90 days as well as casting cores. "Good Winter Entertainment".

Also working on "Reloading" primers using toy gun caps and making primer mix. This is on the back burner though as I strip wall paper in one of the bathrooms, prepare and paint the wall; and then put up oak beadboard I stained and varnished last week.

I'd love to see it if you have a video or pictures somewhere.

Let us know how that goes. I've been researching as well. Those toy caps seem to be good enough for pistol but not rifle.

There are still percussion caps available so finding a way to use those might be better than toy caps.

As Darth Vader would say, "Impressive".

Remember, any job worth doing---- is the perfect reason to buy more power tools.:bigsmyl2:
