Hi everybody I'm interested in getting into swaging and I think I get the most of it. I just have two questions
A. Is there a one step die for swaging 45 Colt bullets?
and
B. What's the price of Corbin's .224 bullet making kit(the one where you make the 22 lr cases)?
Thanks.

OK. The C&H dies sell a 1 step foe the 105 series. It's a SWC and there are no other options. It's about $100 I think. Not bad considering.

Now to the Corbin stuff.

Top quality and you pay for it. A 22RF Kit for a RCBS Rock Chucker is around $800.

I got the CSP-2 press and the H -dies so I am over $2K into it but I want to move on to 30 caliber and up too though for rifles. I am making 22 JHP from RF brass. It's great. The possibilities with one set of dies in nearly endless.

ok thinks ammosmith and by the way your videos are what got me interested

P.S. How would I make the half jacket for the bullet and could I use cast boolits as cores?

Could I just use a certain type of brass like the .40 S&W or something similar?
