    .35 cal gas check seating tool

    Buckshot made a nice .35 cal. gas check seating tool for my friend Tim in TX.
    Tim had Buckshot send the tool here for testing and few photos to share with all of you.

    It is near identical to my .30 cal. gas check seating tool that Buckshot made for me a few days ago. Since very few pointed bullets will be used in a .35 cal. weapon the decision was made to make the bullet seating ram flat on the end. Works just fine.

    Today, I seated a few gas checks with the tool. It works flawlessly.

    If you're interested in one, give Buckshot a PM.

    In the next photo, the g/c is in place and you can see the nose of the bullet
    inside the die as we look down from above .





    The real beauty of this system is that the tolerances are so close that
    there is absolutely no chance for the bullet to enter the gas check in
    anything but a perfect vertical fashion. No chance for the gas check
    to be seated in anything but perfectly flat onto the base of the bullet.
