Make that 2.200". Any longer and I'll crimp in the grease groove. Any shorter and the bullet base will be too far below the neck.

Here you go, this ought to keep you busy.

I have more 3031 than the others but looking at all the specs, H322 is the best choice. I need to key it back a couple flats to about 25.7 where I thought I'd be.

Muchos gracias.

4198 might be second fiddle.

Reminds me of fused arty shells with that nose dimple.

Reminds me of something totally different

I got the hint the first time.....and now I have an extra top punch so you too can make nipple bullets.

You got me wrong but it does look that.

What I'm thinking is that your alloy might be too soft for the loads I gave you

It does look like artillery rounds with screw on fuses at the nose just scaled down. Like the old 75mm rounds
