Hey, Rusty...

How's the swaging going on those .410" to .408" bullets?

I keep looking at all the .416" bullets and wonder how well they would swage down to .411".

Comments welcome...

The .410 seem to swage down to .408 just fine. I gave most of my first box to Tony for him to try.
I have loaded some, just haven't made it to the range to try them out.
You might check with Corbin on that size reduction. I'm just going down .002. You'd be moving down .005. I don't know what the limit would be before you started seperating jacket and core? You need a good heavy press.
