BG- Do you have the specs on that brass for the bore
and case? And who made it,Is is drawn or machined?Is it
on their site?
We can make it for 40% of that price or less.I told
Big Al $8 to $14 depending on what we had to do..Here is pic of one I just made.It is 4th in the picture.For Karl's
friend I included a 30-06 1st for comparison, 458 Win
2nd, 700 HE 3rd, 4 Bore 4th, and 1000 He last.This 4 Bore
case is .975 bore(Can be made from .935 to 1.025),Rim is 1.160 inches, and .85 in thick for headspace.Neck 1.015.
Base is 1.078 and can't go smaller without a 2 inch dies
and hydraulic press(Huge investment).Ross' Evans is .975.
Millar's is smaller, and Mickey's Imperial is .983. I favor on all new ones going to 1.000, so as to get closer to actual 4 bore size and it is the easiest size to make,
from the brass. This is tough drawn brass that will last a lifetime.I am 80 miles NE of GR.Ed.
