    Matchhead primer reloading - found on Youtube

    Well I guess I'm only half crazy.... I did try the match head primer, BUT DID NOT HAVE A LOADED CASE. Just the Re-Loaded match head (white part ) primer and an empty case in a GP100. Actually made 6 of them, and cleaned the heck out of the revolver when finished. Maybe in a SHTF situation...

    I use to have a 5-10 years ago, something went wrong with it (too long ago, don't remember!!) Talked to rcbs about it and they said send it back and they will check it out.

    I mix and match my dies and shell holders. In many years, I've only had one shell holder to pull apart. (crack and break around the cartridge slot ) It was a Lee for a 38/357. I had run about 250 38 specials, then started running 357's and it just cracked and let go???? I even use a smidgen...
