Help I need 5.56x45 fired through a M-249/SAW/Minimi

Hey guys,

I need a large handful do L/C brass that has been once fired in the Minimi/M-249/SAW, and not resized. I need to measure these and send them onto a well-known manufacturer. The manufacturer is looking to make a carbide "push through die" that will remove the belly formed from firing in the looser machine gun chamber.

If you can help, many thanks.

I had heard that Jeff passed away?

Is he still alive? (I hope so).

I was in Vegas last year and went to one of the ranges that rent MG's. I put 50 rds thru the 249 and it was a sweet shooter. If you cannot find a source, you might look them up and get them to send you some. It is called The Gun Store.

Thanks Gents,

The Case Pro 100 is great for semi-commercial/commercial loaders. This is about a tool that is being built for regular folk.

I will give Scottsdale a call as well.
