    There's a nice article over on accurate shooter with three different methods for fireforming. Which bit(s) can't you do?

    Necking up and fireforming with some pistol powder should be straightforward enough for you to do. Does your chamber require the brass to be neck turned?

    I have 6 ppc dies here

    Not hard to form the brass

    The fire forming loads are often 1/2 Moa or better
