Repeating it is the hard part.
In the last couple nights I was able to fix my punch to notch jackets with. I had screwed it up a while back, even after it had work great the first time. Back then I made a couple really great looking XTP designs with the notched jaket and all from a 40 S&W case in 44 caliber. Ever since then I have been unable to repeat it.
In my many nights in the shop I have tried all sorts of different design ideas not knowing exactly what will fall from the die. Every once in a while it seems from pure dumb luck I get somthing that looks really good and then have to figure out just how to repeat it.
So........ as soon as I get some pics taken to post, it seems I may have a final design to my search for a great looking 44 cal bullet from the 40 S&W brass and also able to repeat it sucessfully. May not sound like much being able to do somthing exactly the same over and over again but untill this hobby I had not really had anything to compare such a challenge too.
I'll try and get some pics up soon. Having some computer issues at the moment, seems every two years you have to get a new one.
It is a conspiracy! :Fire: :killingpc:
:lol: kind of looks like both the computer and operator is getting shot.
