Handy tools for reloading BPCR
« on: April 20, 2004, 07:39:13 AM »
I have a several of handy tools that I almost take for granted when loading black powder cartridges. Paul Jones (mold maker) made me a case mouth reamer that puts a nice bevel on the mouth so I never shave lead or tear paper patches when seating bullets. I purchased a wad punch from Buffalo arms recently that operates in my press. With it I now recycle plastic milk cartons for wads. From them I also got a ribbon lube extruder that is press operated. This lead me to start making my own lubes again. Lastly I made a powder compression die from an old reloading die---to compress black powder loads properly. I didn't invent the wheel so I know some of you guys probably already use these items.
