Bullet making dies

Get'em while they're HOT. Richard isn't getting any younger, so if you want to get into making your own bullets, better do it now.

With these die sets you can make bullets using commercial jackets, fired brass as a jacket, or jackets made fron copper tubing. You can make partitions, bonded core, cup and core, soft point, hollow point, open tip, FMJ. You can duplicate construction and performance of factory bullets and meet or exceed quality of factory bullets with these dies. Many bullet makers actually used these types of die sets when they started out, and they and the US military still use single stage swaging presses like this for research and development of new types of bullet designs.

Richard Corbin (rceco.com) has some great presses and hunting caliber die sets in stock at the moment. Press is about $500 and die sets are about $550 per caliber, a different point form die in the same caliber is about $250. I just bought some 358 dies myself this week in 4 different point forms: 1/2E Round Nose, 1 1/8E Elliptical Nose, a 4S spitzer, and a 6SFN. I have been waiting a couple years to see these in stock. Now there are a few available.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
