The bullet on the left is made using a fired 22LRcase. The bullet is a flat base open tip and weighs 52 grains. On the right is a bullet made using a J4 .705″ long jacket. The bullet weighs 57 grains. Change the core weight to make other bullet weights.

224 DDS Set

Price $230.00

This set is used to convert a finished 224 bullet into a Dual Diameter bullet also called a Bore Rider bullet.

This is often used for bullets that have short ogives if the bullet is to be seated out of the cartridge case further to gain more powder room.

The bearing of the bullet is reduced from .224″ to .215″ for part of the length of the bearing. The small diameter will enter the rifling and rest on the rifling lands. The loaded cartridge can be ejected without having the bullet stuck in the rifling. The dual diameter bullet is also popular with target shooters as the small diameter aligns and guides the bullet in the barrel.

The photo shows a round nose bullet, a 6S bullet, and a 6S bullet made with a fired 22LR case. The center bullet shows the dual diameter the best. The length of the reduced section can be varied as wanted.
