[QUOTE="Black Tail Hunter, post: 1201632, member: 59604"] I can relate to the financial constraints and responsibilities that come before things I want. And if I bought enough brass at one time to last the life of my barrel, I would be better off to go buy a nicer car to drive to work every day, as it would easily be 2-3x what I paid for my rifle. That being said, I use low funding as motivation to innovate. My rifle regularly blows primer pockets. I looked up the Hart case saver, it is expensive (in my opinion) and has spotty reviews. After watching some videos online on how it worked I quickly understood why the punch mushrooms. So I got a piece of round bar that would fit in my case neck to act as a mandrel and clamped it in my vise, found an appropriately sized pin punch and swaged it tight again. It works just as the hart case saver, cost me nearly nothing. [/QUOTE]
