I was preparing cores for a batch of 30 cal bullets and found this. That just might be a target wrecker!

Yikes!!!!

Dang, you could have left it in until AFTER THIS WEEK END.

Do you think that is a core swedge die of Charlie’s core operation

Nope.

 

[David Conder]

What do you think it is thanks

 

[JoeDuke]

It is a pinhole in the side of the core. Must have been in the wire originally. You would think it would have swaged shut but for some reason it did not.

 

[AlNyhus]

That's a void in the core wire. -Al

I know that when making cores the pressure is not as much as point up but it seems to me that under the amount of pressure involved in core squirting this would not happen? Maybe the cut core was a bit underweight and also as Al says, a void in the lead wire and therefore not a normal amount of squirt pressure?

I have to throw this in to the conversation
The “Schmidt 112” ruled at Lake Charles Sunday in some tough conditions.
So Ed and I must be doing something right

Super tangent alert.

As a teenager I made donuts while I was working with weights.
