If the rod is chosen correctly. Then your jacket will be smooth. Without wrinkles and creases in the place where they were before. And the maximum possible length. The average length of jackets...

Congratulations to all who are interested in this topic. Over the past six months, I have made 20-25 thousand bullets .224 using brass from jackets 22 LR. So I have some experience and the ability to...

If the Russians find out that you made the AK better in its qualities than when it was just produced in their factory - they will try to convince you that you did everything wrong.
Great work.

I make a lot of bullets. Using 22lr shell casings as a shell. There is a difference in thickness and length between them. From Remington comes a thin long shell. The manufacturer has the letter R on...

Congratulations to the dear visitors of this forum and this page.
I consider it necessary to write how my waiting story ended. What I wrote here earlier. I apologize for not doing this before.

At this stage, I see no reason that small differences in the length of the shell in any way interfere with the formation of a beautiful nose of the bullet. Yes. The size of a lead nose can differ a...

The next step is to form a point. It is key in my opinion for the formation of a beautiful nose. How to guess how much you need to lower the internal blow? I realized that I needed two conditions....

I use a shell for bullets from a bullet casing 22 lr. I sort the shell only by weight. Therefore, it has a slightly different length. It does not prevent me from getting a decent result. My bullets...

Good afternoon. Dear society. I am new to this forum. Besides. to write something in English - I use Google Translate. But I will take the courage to share my experience in the formation of a lead...

I will say briefly - at the time when I placed and paid for the order - there were no such difficulties and restrictions on shipping. This ad on the site, too. In correspondence with Dave then, this...

Excuse me for not answering. I was busy for a while. Meeting of reservists in the army. Our neighbors from the east have made up a fool of themselves.

Thank you for your answers. Yes. Really - I ordered and paid for my equipment to Dave at the end of August. That is, seven months have passed since then.
Apparently I chose a not very good month and...
Forum: Swaging
I agree with you that Dave could best answer my questions.
But ... The problem is that Dave doesn't get in touch with me. For quite some time.
And I'm worried. I hoped that maybe here on the forum...

As you can see, some time has passed since the date of my penultimate post on this topic. What has changed? Not too much. I managed to talk to Dave in January. A little more in February. The last...

I have questions for visitors to this forum. Are there manufacturers of stamps and presses in America focused on the production of medium volume? Similar to the Corbin brothers. To not only meet...

Very interesting topic. Thanks to its author for raising this issue. I'm currently just expecting equipment from Dave. Therefore I am also interested in figures of prime cost of materials....
Forum: Swaging
I understand everything.
I even laugh at the situation. If you look from the side. One man from the opposite end of the earth asks about one of the hundreds of millions of citizens of another...
Forum: Swaging
Yes, when I discussed the order with Dave, what I needed was to talk about Ukraine and America. And I listened to the American point of view on these events. Apparently Dave then had time to...

Yes, on the same e-mail I write to Dave. And some answers have been coming reluctantly lately. Probably. As you say - his wife interferes with Dave's computer. Takes away from him the keyboard for...

This is good news for me. I will wait patiently. I make a conclusion. If you order the equipment - it is necessary to order at once much and in all calibers))).
