have to build brass cases I think.

NitromanWith a 50 ton OBI press you can stamp the coins and make the first draw on that brass too. Then you'll need a press with at least a 6" stroke so you can draw your brass complete. Books are available to describe just how to make drawing dies. I know, I bought several of them, including books on the various designs of presses.
All I need is my shop. Give me five years.

GrandpasezNitroman -- wouldn't it be nice to have cartridge building
shop.Mast isn't going to make small brass orders anymore,
Just big gov military contracts.All that leaves in this country is Rem, Win, Federal, etc., for drawn brass.Right now would be the
time.There would be enough work for 3 shops, with all the wildcatters around.And the ones overseas would still be overloaded like now.Ed.
