Look What I Took Delivery Of Today!

[jackieschmidt]

23 cases of .925 30 caliber J-4 jackets, That’s 101,200 jackets. 13 cases of one Lot, 10 cases of another.

I had the opportunity to get these, so I did.

Needless to say, these will outlive me.

I figure if friends who make their own bullets need some jackets, I can let them have some of these without having to wait a year.

I did not argue price, but the seller was generous enough to compel me to send my wife to the bank.

it was a win/win.

Was Jackie always your name, or just a nickname for Jackets?

Sweet.....I see a Hot Rod in the back behind all those jackets too.
You my friend have some barter power now....as opposed to V8 power.

Just a little old Chevelle with an old big block.

Jackie ... any chance I can get you to post a couple of pictures of bullet jackets. I won't ever get into making my own bullets, but I sure would like to see what the jackets and/or other components look like before the process is started.

When I get to my Shop in the morning, I will take a picture of a jacket, lead core, and my presses.

 

[anschuter2013]

Jackets?, what jackets? The only thing I see is a Blue box of Winchester primers and a nice checkerboard floor.

 

[Rustytigwire]

So much fun, so little time....

 

[jackieschmidt]

Here is a Jacket, Core, Core Seated Jacket, finished bullet and my equipment.

Jackie thanks very much for the pictures. The one thing that still has me a little stumped is how the resulting bullet nose is made into a point without wrinkling the jacket. Must be the dies and pressure coming from the swaging process. Thanks again .. just trying to keep learning about our world.
