Who makes custom stamps for blank based brass?


Adam

If you want stamps; call Buckeye Engraving; they are in Ohio, but you probably already know that. they will make any stamp from a picture or a description. If you want brass; call starline; they will make brass with your custom headstamp with a min quantity order, which I forget how many.

10,000 last I heard. I guess I can call Buckeye. I just wanted to check to see if there was a specific company making case head stamps.

What you want is someone with a small CNC mill.
Maybe a place where they ingrave dogtags.

The tool is called a bunter and generally costs about 300 bucks. www.470mbogo.com has a section on how Dave does it.

For a small number, a trophy shop with engraver would work

Jeff,

That's what I was looking for. I couldn't remember that link. Thanks.

G'Day Fella's,


We once had Starline Brass in the US, make us some Pistol Cases with a case head stamp, to commemorate a slimy gun grabbing politician down here in Australia!
We called it the .38 JWH !!!

Starline were happy to do both these tasks for us!

Hope that helps

Doh!

I suppose this "stamp" will have a primer pilot to hold center

You will also need inner and outer support of the case to minimize distortion

There will be scrap

Buckeye will make you that stamp; should be no scrap as it will be piloted or recessed to center the stamp. I have no stake in them, just use them a lot for custom work.

The scrap will come from inadequate case support during stamping
