This latest adventure into "odd" cartridges is something I haven't done in a number of years. Don't know why I ever quit as I love a challenge.. Now if I can just break my old habit of setting up to practically go into commercial production. (I usually don't shoot the darn things more than 10 rounds, so why do I make up 50 to 100 rounds of ammo???)
I even traded off my copy of Nonte. (Of course it got to where a good number of the cartridges he used as a starting point for conversion have become the subject of conversion.)

BTW, have you found yourself picking up Berdan primers whenever you find them? It sure is a lot simpler repriming old cases than it is making new ones. I never did manage to do a satisfactory primer pocket conversion......(But I tried.)
