I have a dbl. barreled 15 m/m, pinfire hand gun. I would like to know how to make 15 m/m pinfire cases for it, to shoot it. I have the 600, diameter RB's for the case's if some one could point me in how to make the cases out of what parent case? has any one done it before? thanking you.
There are kits out there with pre-made ones. Most of the 15mm pinfire cartridges I find don't have rims. Your best bet might be drilling out a brass rod.
thank you for the reply to my question. something to think about. the kits do not have any in 15 m/m.
I think the big problem you'd have trying to make one from an existing cartridge is that the web of the case is going to force you to put the pin too far forward.
Can you use 20-gauge shotgun hulls? I remember a Ross Seyfried article in the late lamented "Blackpowder Hunting" magazine in which he made them for an old pinfire shotgun.
I suggest getting pre made if available. There are still quite a few of those guns around over here. The kits are available here. I don’t know about in the US.
