Ammo costs always rising dang it...
So I made a tool to truncate 22 solids.
Testing coming soon soon.

That'll work! I have the old original my Dad made years ago and later that Paco and Ed Wosika produced. This is what it looks like and what it looked like after killing a Javelina with it.

I have never checked. And I have been using them since I was a teenager ... more than 60 years ago! They worked and I was pleased with performance and accuracy. And no one had chronographs in those days. Well ... hardly anyone. :roll:

I have countersunk the bottom but I needn't of done it. The hand easily holds the round in place.

Well it's a success.
They certainly give more whack than a solid.
