Hoot's October 3.1 Deal

Postby Hoot » Wed Oct 31, 2012 10:50 pm

Every year on my Birthday (October 31), besides reveling in feeding the trick-or-treaters, I do a good deed for some lucky member(s).

This year is no exception.

Early this morning I modded a Lee FCD for one of our members. His price was to send me his FCD to mod and one for me to keep for myself. I ordered three more of them from Midway today to take advantage of their sale that expires in a few minutes.

The first 3 members who respond with "I'll take one", will get a Lee FCD die set up for the no-fuss stab crimp .1 inch below the mouth (=3.1). That's what seems to be the setting most often used and its easy to make. Your cost will be the equivalent of sending me one to mod and one to keep, based upon the sale price at Midway. AKA $20.00 plus $3.00 First Class Shipping. If you have an order of black followers in the mill already, I will throw it in with them and save you the shipping.

Even though the die is optimized for ease of use with the crimp depth fixed at .1 inches below the mouth, I will include two ~.05 inch shim washers to allow you to move it towards the mouth in .05 inch steps should you choose to do that.

I can accept PayPal "Machined Parts", or your check or money order, whichever you prefer.

If demand exceeds the 3 that I ordered, I will consider doing another run later in the year.

Hey guys, this is a good deal and a key tool when using FMJs and other bullets when you want to get better ignition of your loads. Hoot also made the die that I am using for my FMJ research.
Thanx Hoot!

Me, me, me, please. I'll take one. I have sent you a PM about the followers and will add the Lee FCD when I make my payment next week.
