The heat drove me to the cellar yesterday,rumaging around found Bahler 357 swaging dies and corbin 22 rf jacket maker,pleasant surprise.Twenty years ago I made 22hornet bullets using the empty 22rf brass.Also found an adjustable core mold casts about 6 cores in a wack.Bullet making I've found to be boreing and extreamly labor intensive.I can see a benchrest perfectionest making his own.Time wise I'am far ahead running the sawmill and buying commercial .224 bullets.As an aside empty 22rf cases should be annealed before you iron out the rim.I would fill a vented 2" pipe nipple with two caps and throw it in the woodstove,they would come out dead soft,clean with brass solution.

If you decide to part with the dies, I am interested in rim fire stuff.

Corbin rimfire drawing dies have standard 7/8 by 14 threads.
They work ok in an RCBs or similar compound leverage pess.
