243 to 224 Jacket

Price: $105.00

Redraws a 243 (6 mm) bullet jacket to 224 caliber. Commercial jackets made by J4/Berger,  Sierra, or Hines can be used.  243 jackets have thicker walls than do 224 jackets which means the 224 jacket will also have a thicker wall than commercially made 224 jackets.  This can be an advantage for hunting bullets or for use with very high velocity cartridges.  A smaller core swage and smaller lead wire will be needed.  A core seating punch is included with the set.

Larger jacket to smaller jacket redraw sets

Price: $105.00

Used to redraw a commercial jacket to a smaller caliber.  The set includes the redraw die and core seat punches.  Many combinations are possible.  Common ones are a 224 jacket to 20 caliber, 20 caliber to 17 caliber, 30 caliber to 284, 277, 264, or 257 caliber.  Some sets are in stock.  Not sure about what is needed?  A trim die set may  be needed  to make the jacket length needed.  Just send an email and what can be done and what is in stock.

 

Cartridge case jacket maker sets

Price: $105.00

Many fired cartridge cases can be used to make bullet jackets for plinking and even light game hunting.  The 223 Remington/5.56 NATO case can be used to make 375, 358, and 338 caliber jackets.  45 ACP cases make 452 and 458 jackets.  40 S&W can make 40 and 410 caliber jackets.  9 mm cases make OK 355 to 358 caliber jackets.  Fired belted magnum cases make 500 and 510 jackets.  There are many other possibilities but the case used should not be more than a few thousandths smaller than the bullet diameter to be made.  The sets include the core seat punches.  Don’t see what is wanted.  Use the “Contact” page to send an email and to find out what can be done and what is in stock.
