Stefan Posted April 8, 2019 Report Share Posted April 8, 2019 Is there an easy way to form .300WM brass to make frangible rounds for the .50BMG? Any recommendations? I have a growing amount of .300wm brass so I figured it would be an interesting project. Just trying to not break the bank doing it. Thank you.

50 Shooter Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 You would need a die to swage the brass into the shape and diameter you would need for it to fit into a .50 case. You can try CH4D.com and see if they have one, if it's not on their website, try calling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefan Posted April 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 Thank you, I will check CH4D! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Posted April 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 I check with CH4D, they said they didn't have anything. He said that he had heard of people doing that and that he remembers them using loose shot to gain better accuracy. I expected nothing great for accuracy it just sounded like something fun.

50 Shooter Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 I posted a thread on thefiringline.com, maybe one of the guys there will have some info. I remember there was a site that had a lot of info and offered supplies for sale. I'll keep an eye on the thread and if you want, come by the site. Its in the reloading forum if you want to check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Posted April 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Looks like Corbin has the tools. Now I just need to win the lottery. www.corbins.com/fiftycal.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50 Shooter Posted April 20, 2019 Report Share Posted April 20, 2019 Check the cast boolits site, from what I remember, you could make them on your own press. If you have to buy Corbin stuff, you'll need to hit the lotto! Just not cost effective for someone to do it on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
