A few 7mm soup can bullets to modify for .30 rimfire cartridge use

[ndnchf]

I'm looking for maybe 20 Lee 7mm soup can bullets that I can modify for use in my custom made reloadable .30 rimfire cartridges.

A little background - I make my own reloadable rimfire cases for many different antique guns. I just acquired an 1860s vintage Marlin "OK" vest pocket pistol chambered for .30 rimfire. I made up one cartridge using another 7mm bullet, but it is a bit long in the nose. The Lee 7mm soup can is a better option. I'm making up a few more cases and would like to use a 7mm soup can, cut down to the appropriate size.

Can anyone help? I'm glad to pay for them and shipping. I would consider a reasonably priced mold too.

Thanks,
Steve

I don't know about the 7mm soup can, but I think I have some 7mm Thor bullets cast. I think I also have one of thr ballisticast thor molds that cast oversize at 0.288 +/-.

I would have to double check what is Lready cast, but they should be rather soft using range lead or 50/50. This is a gas check bullet. If interested, let me know.

I'm not familiar with those bullets, but they may work. The 7mm soup can has a short nose, With those I can cut off the base in the lathe and cut a heel. The bullet in my photo is from a stock Lee 7mm .284 mold. I'll do it again if needed, but will consider other options. Can you send a photo of them? Thanks - Steve

Edit: here is a photo of the stock Lee 7mm bullet I used above. The 7mm soup can has a short, rounded nose.

Yep, probavly wouldn't work with longer nose.

I wasn't sure what the specific
design requirements were for your bullets to work.

These are a little fatter than typical 7mm as cast bullets.

OK, thanks for the offer.
