41 Swiss Vetterli 10.4X38mm center fire brass cases and customized cast bulletsFeed your old beauty, make her and yourself happy again!
Newly made 41 Swiss brass cases from brand new Starline 50 Alaskan brass cases：cut，annealed with AMP annealer，formed using Lee 41 Swiss full length sizing die，trimed with case length 1.525”（ Observed that feeding reliably with loaded ammo OAL length between 2.180“-2.220”, so with 0.005'' extra length for possible cast bullet variation, instead of 1.520'', easily trimed off the extra 0.005'' brass if you don't like it ), cleaned off lube then annealed once more, tested to extract and eject reliably. Ready for reloading.
9$ each+shipping , minimum 12 pcs.
Have some hard cast bullets cast with customized heeled bullet mold designed by myself (http://accuratemolds.com/bullet_deta...bullet=43-310F) to go with those cases if you desire, all lubed with Alox and sized with .429'' Lee bullet sizer, lubed with Alox again ( tested free of leading, even after more than 100 shots, no leading observed: yes, Vetterli is so fascinating, I did extensively loading test with more than 1000 rounds through my M78 and M69/71 and then designed my own bullet for her and am thinking of designing a paper patch bullet. ) , tested to be working quite well : check those 5-shot and 10-shot groups shot at 40 meters indoor range with 1869/71 Vetterli rifle). Ready for reloading.
0.5$ each+shipping, sorry, 3 bullets per case ordered limited due to limited bullets quantity, no place to cast bullets during winter time, should be able to cast more bullets after winter.
With my cast bullets and Lee 41 Swiss full length sizing die sized brass cases, you can hand seat the bullet, then use Lee 41 Swiss seating die with seating stem removed to give the loaded round a very firm and consistent crimp at the first groove from the bottom ( the seater will clear the bullet instead of the case mouth), by feeling that the case mouth brass is crashed a little bit ( it is ok that the bullet might be turned by hand inside the case mouth after crimping, but it would be firmly seated, won't be pulled out by hand)，don't go too much，too much crimp might cause the case mouth bumping up too much and you might encounter difficulty to chamber especially with those Vetterlis with tighter chamber.
Photo 5 & 6 show that the right one was hand seated before crimping, the left one was properly crimped, and the abovementioned cast bullet.
FYI only, use it at your own risk: I found using the recommended charge from the internet of 11 grains of Trail Boss to be around 2200 fps and kicks hard，eventually I reduced the charge to 7 grains of Trail Boss to achieve around 1400 fps, very close to Vetterli designed velocity and very mild and pleasant kicks, no grease cookies, no wads needed. I rendered that the 11 grains of Trail Boss charge was gained from improperly reloaded rounds not using heeled bullets and not getting proper crimp. I did tests with Tripple 7 also, found the data on the internet is way too much also, I got 1900 fps muzzle velocity reducing the charge to 24 grains by weight of Tripple 7, which is only half full of case capacity！I did not go further experimenting with Tripple 7, cause I got very good results with Trail Boss, and I did not enjoy cleaning the bore after every range trip burning Tripple 7.
