    Secondly, looking at your brass, I wonder if it is "out of the box" Magtech 24 gauge " If so the cases will need to be trimmed and formed.

    Ask if assistance needed as I found snider projectiles available her unsuitable and brought in sets of dies for my Snider as well as the Martini Henry. IF you have been sourcing your brass and ball from our friend Phil in the South Island (Bromley) neither of these points will be an issue.
    Thank you , I will check those out. Yes it’s 24ga Magtech brass which iv trimmed to length but not yet sized . Just got dies today so tonight’s mission is to get to get a few finished loads together that will chamber.
