mscott Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 A guy could ream out the bullet end of his present case gauge and get pretty much the same effect, couldn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisa006 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I'll take 3 in 40 and one in 38S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Moore Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Mike, will they work for 9mm? If so i can be your shipping partner that way you can charge less for shipping when they come from the US. You better patten the idea before someone beats you to it.

Mike Dame Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 A guy could ream out the bullet end of his present case gauge and get pretty much the same effect, couldn't he? Put a bigger chamfer on one end as well 9mm won't work since there is a .011" taper to the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L9X25 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 9mm won't work since there is a .011" taper to the case Neither will .38 Super since the rim is the only thing that you would be checking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanM Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 (edited) What are those? Edit: Never mind, I figured it out Edited February 8, 2007 by DanM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CenTX Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Count me in for one. This gives me an idea. Mount it low on my strong mount with a funnel above to guide the round into the the guage and a catch box below it. If you don't have many rejects, it could speed the whole process.

Mike Dame Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 Neither will .38 Super since the rim is the only thing that you would be checking... correct, but supercomp and TJ are rimless, so it would work for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Dame Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 (edited) Here's some finished 40's (16 in total) no 38's yet, I'm waiting on tooling. check size is .423" the 38's will be .383" Shipping was a bit more then I had thought so they will be $18 USD shipped(6-12days). Is every one cool with doing EMT's/e-mail interac? Send me a PM with your details and I'll give you my e-mail if I have what you want ready, if not then I'll let you know how long it will be then contact you again when its ready to go out to set up the payment. Thanks UPDATED Feb 9 11:50pm I have a paypal account now,they're going to ding me $1.70 on every unit so if you want to use paypall could you add that to you total please. Also I will be giving them a black oxide finish now. The first 40's will be sent out on Tuesday afternoon.

Mike Dame Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 I checked a 38 supercomp case and the rim was .001 bigger then the case, so this wouldn't work with the gauge. So I guess its .40 's only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Dame Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 (edited) I can't seem to edit my last post's could a mod please delete them? I let myself get caught up in this and over stepped the forum boundries, i'm not sure if I'm going to fire out enough of these to make it worth becoming a dealer but If I do decide i'll put a post in this forum. Thank you to everyone who contacted me, your's are on the way. Everyone else, I'm sorry but I must stop actively selling these outside of the dealer forum.

mscott Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I decided to use a big countersink to open up the bullet end of my case gauge today. I've gotta say that is one of the best ideas I've seen in a long time. I ran about 2,800 rounds through it in no time at all. Thanks for sharing your idea with us, Mike.

Carlos Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Hey Mike - nice piece of work! Here is a thought: could such a contraption be hooked up somehow to the new bullet feeder to coax loaded ammo to automatically drop through the gauge? We would still have to monitor the process to remove ammo that does not pass. Thought? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanM Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 As soon as I get my gauge, I'm going to try and rig something up so the finished round would drop through the gauge into a bin. Yes, you'd have to monitor it but to have gauged rounds ready to box up would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
