@blainenay Whhel weights are a little too hard I think. The die won't get damaged but you can bulge a swage punch. I have done that. If you want to you can get another punch made and hardened but be careful the punches are designed to bulge so no excessive pressure in exerted on the dies.
Thanks for this great series! I want to start swaging for my .44 magnum. What combination of dies, punches, brass etc., do you recommend or do you have a video series for the same?
You mentioned using wheelweight lead (WW). How much more pressure does this alloy require? Any adverese effects on the dies or press when using WW lead? I'm looking forward to your range report on these bullets.
Do you swage only pistol rounds or u have different dies to. I have ordered hg press and dies for 224 so I was wondering if you swage any 224 bullets. Or if you will make any more instructional videos ? Thank you so much ur videos got me to order my setup it is amazing what u are doing . If u have any suggestions or improvements on bullet making from ur experience please post thank you so much
Great Video as always : ) With that music I kept expecting you to turn around real fast and stare at the camera with the gill monster head from creature from the black lagoon though ; )
It would be interesting to introduce us and yourself (if not already) on FMJ materials selection copper ,brass ,aluminium ,alloys ,hardness ,costs , impact ,rifling worn out and accuracy , in comparison with mass produced bullets and not only. For example a brass tube with a certain grade of quality bought from our home depot store and a brass tube of a same or different grade and consistency bought from a 'non-iron metal retail' seller why are better or not? (All this referring on grades of metals which are considered easy to find on market)
Because here I teach people to make their own ammunition that is better than the factory for 90% less than what one would pay for at the store. I teach this so as to allow the free people of our nation to resist tyranny by any means they feel to take it to the enemy. I am now teaching others as instructors to spread what knowledge I have in ammunition and with small unit tactics. Fuck Obama!!!!!
Why not make sure that you are truly saved by Jesus Christ and practice this way. Remorsefully confess with your heart your sins to Jesus Christ who is God and tell Him that you right now are repenting of your sins and you want to be born again of the Spirit from above. Tell Jesus that you are remorsefully sorry for breaking His commandments and that you are begging for forgiveness from Him. Allow His blood from the cross to wash away your sins. After this is done with your heart successfully the Holy Spirit will come to live within you and He will rebuild you from the inside out. Look for signs that you are saved. Things like spreading the good news from Jesus, getting other people saved, a craving for the word of God, reading the Bible, etc… These things are known as a calling and fruit bearing. If you're not bearing fruit then keep doing it. Sometimes it takes time to get saved. Read Matthew chapter 13 from the King James Bible. God bless!
I just got the 101 10mm/40cal dies may 7 2016 and my problem is that i dont get a .400 dia bullet it only come out at .397 do you have the same problem? So im going to take a berrys plated and slug both my dies and measure. I annealed the brass twice so i know the brass is soft to expand.
great video, freaky music
Another great project / video.. I didn't even know this was possible, thanks for the vid
Be thankful of his vids the music isn't that bad stop crying don't listen to them its a great vid keep up the good work :)

Since we're on the topic of music and not the content of the video, I think the music is cool.

I thoguht about swaging but it takes 1 year to get the presses and dies. Plus, the RCBS Rock chucker is not strong enough to last?
SO can I make rifle and handgun bullets...are you casting lead bullets then using brass to jacket the rounds...?
Appearantly C&H is no longer making the bullet swaging dies. Not listed on their website anymore.
Dose C&H make these in 223 so you can make 223 out of 22lr cases
Great Video as always : )

@backwoods223 I was trying to get rid of the garage freezer noise.
@chet0127 I haven't tried the .452" dies as of yet.
@backwoods223 The last time I unplugged the freezer I forgot to plug it back in. Not a good thing.
Whats up with the mysterious sound 😁🧟♂️

It's like watching an episode of the X files, without Skully.
Great video. What's with the spooky music
We don't use the crappy music anymore. I used it to fill the silence.
@@ammosmith Thank you
We are scrapping the music...
8 years later, the music still sux.
Where can this swagin dies be bought?
I got these at CH4D.com
@omegahpla ya like haunted house or early sci-fi music.

@ammosmith ah.... well in that case, thank you! Those constant buzzing and humming noises are even worse.
@ammosmith i like the "infamous" background music :P
Can i do this for 45acp
Yes with the right dies.
@@ammosmith do you know where i can find said dies?
@@freedom-vc9wi CH4D.com

@Ultimatemxcn Sorry it's royalty free music.

Why the horror music?
Music is like fingernails on a chalk board.
Why we don't use background music anymore.
great video man but that background music is horrible.
☆☆☆☆☆
Music is very distracting!!
We're not using music anymore. This is an older video.
Back ground music sucks.
I'll try to watch again when you remove it.
