"ANTIQUE" Reloading Press

Die specifics

Oh,
One last thing about the Brass dies? Inside each chamber is a sharp tip conical shape to load same in the case. That’s exactly how the early lead bullets were shaped. So that also fits.

Hey Murph, would it be practical to do a cerra-safe casting of one chamber in each “cylinder” to get the dimensions of the intended cartridges?

Looks some what like my brass cork screw I found at a garage sale a few years ago.

Awesomely cool! I suppose the increased “screw time” is offset by the fact that you are doing 3 at once.

I can imagine a bigger loading-block based unit doing a whole box at a time. =:O

Gang loader

I agree. The screw press is very strong and could easily press a large number at one time with the right loading block design.

Charlie,
If you check out the photos the 32L and 38L with the Yellow X look like the inside of the 3 chambers for each die. So definitely an early round. The listing in this book is 1875.
