    Hollow nose jig

    Thought you might be interested, here is a little jig I made for a guy to create hollow nose projectiles, which i can make for calibers that you can't get ready made hollow nose projectiles.

    Basically a body machined to hold it, a bolt that clamps into place, a hardened drill bush and a collar for the drill to set the depth. They seem to work well and I have made a few now for various calibers including 308, 32 acp etc.Name:  HP1.jpg

    Ooo...how $much? 44cal 45cal & 357cal for starters
    I know a lot but it seems less every day...

    Due to the exorbitant cost of reloading components, warning shots will not be given.

    Can do for $225 each plus postage, the same jig could no doubt do the 45 and 44 though you might need another body for the 357 and I would need projectiles to work with.

    Best contact me on fssprecision@gmail.com if you want to go any further

    Cheers
