I will check it out when it arrives, and after I've created a few empties. Sounds like a little prep, a couple dabs of silver brazing alloy in the lateral holes, then drill--all of which sounds like a pain, but a worthy project after some of the more pressing boondoggles are completed... I'll soon be fooling around reloading .22lr, just to develop the skill, and perhaps to result in the FMJ round in .22lr I've always wanted to try! There are now a couple of concerns that offer a hand crimper tool, made desirable by current lack of availability and higher prices for .22.
