Being the frugal man I am (my wife just says I am cheap), I want to make my own wad cutter.
I expect a Duro-Felt delivery soon and am getting my wad cutter tool ready.
My first attempt will be to flare a 45-70 casing to .460" and drill out the primer pocket so I can poke a rod through to clear the cut wads.
I realize the casing might be too soft for this intended purpose. Since I have never made my own wads before I fully expect this preliminary attempt to have a few difficulties.
Has anyone else made their own wad cutter and want to share ideas?
Thanks!
