I have never attempted to make cases for that cartridge, but the dimensions that I have for it suggest that it would not be all that difficult to do.
Maybe the dimensions I have are incorrect.
What base diameter measurement do you have for the .240 Flanged?
You are correct, I had it backwards! the head would have to be swaged down, a much better choice, but would require anealing in that area, I'm sure, but doable. The 9.3X74R head dia is .465[/COLOR]
