Bullet stop! - Rick Mulhern - 03-24-2013
I don't like uneven patches! This prevents it! Yeah...I know! You roll 'em one handed! But I have BIG HANDS/FINGERS...and yours may not have a little Ole Arthur in 'em!!

Looks to me as good a way to insure frt edge placement repeatability as any I've ever seen. A good job there Rick and good of you to share it. bobw

When one is 'retarded'....there's lots of time to THIMK but it makes my head hurt so most of the time I try to refrain from thimking too much; just enuff to find the way home!!
I used some steel weld to set the seater stem into slot after making certain that it's center was level with the nose of the bullet. About 4 whacks with a plastic hammer and it was level!!

Rick, I wrap mine backwards from what you do for a right hand twist. Does it matter one way or the other?
