Trying to help out fellow Misfit Brent with his project. He traded for an ancient custom Mauser built into a .219 Donaldson Wasp. Go ask for that at the local Gun shop! Lol. It was a fun challenge but I think I have some mock ups that will chamber and dies modified (.22-250 shortened) that would load his formed cases. A shame we live so far apart. Just think of the mischief.
Interestingly I mainly used the .30 Herrett die to begin, pushing the shoulder back to where I wanted it, then necked to .25, .24, and finally .22. I did finish off with a touch of .25-35 WCF taper to make sure it will chamber. Hopefully! These are mock ups for mailing, I touched them off with some sexy Calhoun 30 gr. DHP’s, man would those scream.
