Thanks for posting that. I had no idea you could make your own gas checks !
No problem.
Here's a straightforward demo and explanation of how to do it:

Thanks for posting that. I had no idea you could make your own gas checks !
For the record:
I sold my only rifle for $48.50, gave away all my ammo, kept my 2-1/2" pocket knife for peeling apples, divested myself of anything potentially illegal in case Biden wins. Even told the dog she's up for sale because she might bite somebody. Just can't take the chance she would.
A sad day for me. But, I feel like I did the right thing. I'm waiting to see if hurricane shutters will be illegal and will sell them if they are. If anybody needs a 12" pointed round file/rasp I'll probably need to get rid of that too.
Just trying to get ahead of the new regime if it happens. Oh, and all my kitchen knives too, gone! Im keeping the paint can opener because it doubles as a bottle opener! And if anybody comes for it, there will be spilled paint!
I had a broken mason jar with a sharp edge on it, so it went in the recycle this morning. Not keeping any sharp pencils either.
I could go on, and I may be overthinking this stuff, but just trying to be compliant and legal.

The HP cavity is .188" wide and .253" deep. Gotta pick up some "BB's". Could aid in expandsion at the sub vels.
Should I be concerned that ATF might consider this "armour piercing". Sheeeeeeesh !!! ---- SAWMAN
Whats the twist on that rifle??You are right. Have used the .177" BB's for this type of project before. They are hard and will not deform. They are forced into the cavity and initiate rapid expansion.
Wish I could spin this bullet at about 1:10 twist vels. Even subsonic they would come apart.
A poly tip would be useful also. --- SAWMAN
How do you get a consistent meplat? What kind of range is your goal?I hollow pointed some .500" 300gr Hornady XTP MAG bullets down to 288grs. Did about 60 of 100.
These will start out sub then get faster and faster depending on what my boney shoulder ( with shoulder surgery) will take. I will do some water jug tests to see how fast they will open. The PRC did not hurt me sooooooooooo . . . . .
If Bruce were a friend he would volunteer to help me sight this gun in. ---- SAWMAN
Yeah, the 450B is 1:24 pistol (10.5) and rifle (16) (AR) one of the good things with the "B" is loads of .45 bullets to pick from. Don't think you can use lead with it though, too fast.My bbl is 1:20. I believe that the pistol bbls are a little faster.
I might have cut the HP cavity too deep and a tiney bit too wide. Didn't think of the BB thing until I got them all (90 or so) cut. I have another 100 coming though.
Could possibly find just the right sized ball from a bearing though. Stainless would be great. ---- SAWMAN
