I'm considering getting into the world of self-made gas checks. Do y'all have opinions concerning the tools floating around for that purpose? Viable option, or should I just keep on throwing money at Hornady checks (when I can find them)? Opinions over on the “other” forum reach a religious fervor, when all I want is some sober analysis.
One aspect that never seems to get addressed is the crimp-on feature of the Hornady (or lack thereof on the home brews). Been using the Hornadys for so long I've forgotten about how well the old brass Lymans worked, or didn't work.
On the same note, I am considering firing up the lathe and mill to cook up a tool of my own.
