Thanks to 45 2.1 for pointing out to those of us on another thread discussing the possibility of a case forming group that this exists already.

Thank-you!
I'm sure we all appreciate that you took the time to do this, especially with all that you have going on around here.

Recluse made the winning argument in post #24 on the other ---> thread <---.
This is what this place is about.

I didn't update. Also didn't realize this thread was in this forum :laugh:
"The fact that so many of us here have actually re/formed cases to specific calibers because brass for those calibers was either unavailable or outrageously expensive parallels why many began casting their own lead projectiles."
Exactly
Sometimes I am too cheap to pay the piper, sometimes I want to do what the nay sayers say can't be done, other times it's bringing something old or odd back to life.

Thank you 1 for this place to discus reforming . Next will be how to , stickies for A to B cases . Or why to do that , because it is easier to do this . This will be a very nice place to impart and obtain information .
Yup, thank you No.1 and thank you Recluse for articulating the case reforming case, LOL!

I'm glad this forum on re-forming got started. I've always been curious about it as I think a lot of folks are. Thanks for those responsible for it . . . I look forward to learning a lot!
Thank you for the forum.

Cool! I don't think I'll be doing much reforming but a bit of lurking here may help me make better decisions when faced with a opportunity to buy a rifle chambered in an obsolete cartridge.

Some of my favorite recipes start out with a handful of depleted counterbalance devices.
Glad to see it happen. Forming is needed in many, many cases.
Thirty to 40 years ago we formed cases because that was the only way to get cases to shoot some rifles.
Then we went through a period of plenty with many old cases being reintroduced. This enabled many to shoot their old rifles without case forming. Now we are back to forming cases because many even common cases are no longer easily found.

Thanks to the person who got this forum started, ***** it will be nice to share case forming problems to find an answer instead of ruining all the brass you can find.
