    Ive found the best method for all my wildcats/Ackley's etc is a full to the brim case of Trailboss then stab it into a candle to seal with a plug of wax. Most cases will form fully this way and its cheaper than fireforming with bullets.
    Some of the thicker brass with 40 deg shoulders dont get supper sharp shoulders but they blow forward enough to head space properly for the first proper load which sharpens them up.











    hey, stevodog and Luke777 like this.
