    WTB--.44 cal Plain base checks

    Need some 44 cal plain base checks. Would like to buy 1000. Would also like to buy some that will fit a .460 PB bullet. I want the ones made from soda cans. Wallace in Ga

    I use to have a PatMarlin's 44PB Checkmaker. I sold it long ago with most all my other 44 stuff.
    But I have some leftover 44PB GCs.

    one baggie marked 44PB .006 Yonky Aluminum aprox qty:100
    > these are silver colored and look uncoated (popcans have a coating)

    one baggie marked 44PB Popcan metal .0045" aprox qty:350
    > these are black & blue, made from energy drink cans.

    They both worked very well on .432 boolits (sized to .431) that were cast with a soft alloy, like 7 or 8 Bhn.

    I can't say for sure there is 450 GCs here, because it's been years since I used them, but it "looks" like there is about that many.
    I will ship them all to you for $15.

    Send a PM to n.h.Schmidt. I’ve bought plain based checks from him before. He makes them from pop cans. I use them on the Lee 401-175-tc in 10 mm
