    Got a Deer with the Hawkins last year and often take the Bess loaded with shot rabbit shooting.

    Beautiful looking rifle there, Chris. Bet you can't wait to get some time behind the trigger on it.

    Must be a good feeling having it all come together after that long. I'm trying to figure out where you'd be likely to come up with some spare brass plate. You need to find with a furnace who can melt some cartridge brass down for you!


    Had a bit of a muck around with the 3D printer at work and quickly made up an adapter to let me fill Dillon primer tubes from the Lee primer tray from the old press.

    Works pretty well for a rough first attempt. I had to widen out the primer channel a bit with a knife which left it rough so the primers sometimes tilt a little going into the tube and get hung up. It also takes a decent amount of sifting the tray back and forth to get the primers to go down the tube. The other things I've seen people make use a vibe motor to speed the process up, so I think I've got an old cellphone with one in it that I might rip apart and try.

    So even with that, it takes probably 30 seconds to fill 100 primers into the tube and I've run 1000 primers through it (filled and dumped 10x) without a single flipped one, so it seems to be a promising idea!

    Next thing to try is a bullet collator to use with a Hornady bullet feed die... I'm using 124gn Round Nose 9mm projectiles, so those should be plenty easy to deal with.

    Strange.
    Isn't the top of the primer tube crimped on the Dillon?
    The top of the Hornady progressive's primer tube has a lovely fine crimp. You just need to dump all the primers on a flat surface (rounded side upwards) and then just press the tube onto each primer. They simply stack up inside the tube, being held by the crimp.

    They have a plastic tip that is used to pick up the primers. It just seems like a particularly inefficient system to me. There are plenty of examples of people doing the same thing for both home made and commercial so I figure why not.

    Managed to get a couple of really basic test pieces for the bullet collator printed today.

    That's a half-assed video that I put together to show that it actually kinda works!

    These are just 2 basic flat plates that I printed and screwed to the wood and moved around by hand.

    The bullets don't settled into the channels very nicely because they're quite shallow and the cardboard which is simulating the edge of the bowl catches on the noses and turns them around.

    Next test is deeper channels, undercutting the center piece so that the 2 plates locate together vertically better and then trying to figure out how the hell I'm going to drive the outer plate.

    dont need pics. Is it steel proof? (ie, not damascus, but im pretty sure baikal never did...)
    full 3" chamber or only 2 3/4?
    I had a ss baikal 12ga, damn nice gun. Ive been hankering for a sbs for a while.
    Ill pm you about the money/drugs/hookers/payment.
    Also, had the firing pins replaced? And does it have ejectors?
