I was at a range and talking to a guy who shoots the 6brx. I asked him how he formed his brass. He said a guy he buys brass from uses water to form his cases. Interested, I googled how this process works and came up with this: http://www.accurateshooter.com/techn...-forming-dies/
Has anyone here used this process to make custom brass?
If you are a 6BR site member you have read about it, but still great information. With a little ingenuity anyone could do this to any wildcat. Hornady makes the dies if you need them. Years ago I used hydraulics to remove Berdan primers. When I resized the cases I saw that I had changed the dimensions considerably. Stands to reason it would be very effective. As we learned in middle school. You cant compress a liquid. So it stands to reason that Hydraulic forming is an effective way to do it.
John Whidden offer a nice hydraulic forming die for wildcat rounds.Quote:

Everything John does is "nice".Quote:
