It depends on the weight of bullet you want to make. I can make a 115gr Open tip 6mm from a full length 22mag, cutting just the neck off a 17HMR I can get a 100gr open tip or 107gr Lead tip bullet.Originally Posted by MIBULLETS

I am cutting them short to make 65 gr bullets for my 6PPC right now and plan to do some 100 gr partition type later.
I know I have some .22mag in my scrap-brass bucket, Ill fish 'em out & they're yours.
I love it when someone can make use of shooting by-products.
The postage is gonna kill ya!

Redgum, I have had 4 members send me empties from this thread, so let Lizard have these and thank you for the offer.
This is a good bunch of folk here!
Done,
If you would like to *PM* your address Lizard, I shall get them on their way to you.
What does $10 AUS convert to US dollars? Never mind, found it:

Currently $10.59 (US) for postage
Lizzard333 should at least cover postage cost.

I got the brass today, or says my wife. I don't get a lot of packages from Australia. Thanks again! I will put them to good use.

So at the range yesterday and stumbled across a bit of 17 hmr brass and thought of this thread. Anyone want them is more than welcome to have them.
"Consequently we move away from other shooters to remain focused on our passion, as our ideas are quickly dismissed or misunderstood by others. Sharing does not come easily for swagers, not because they are necessarily selfish, but because they have been whittling away in their only little world for so long, that being able to relate to others what they understand is no simple task."
