[QUOTE="MontanaJack, post: 3098785, member: 25389"] I grew up using the hydraulic case former that Rocky Gibbs included with the die sets he sold with all of the Gibbs wildcats back in the 50’s and 60’s. My dad and his buddies used military surplus brass to form brass for the 6.5 Gibbs, the 270 Gibbs, the 30 Gibbs, and the 8mm Gibbs. It got dangerous if you didn’t get all of the air out of the case before hitting the plunger. This process required fire forming to finish the cases. Dad used surplus bullets. I use the Cream of Wheat method to finish the process for these old family heirlooms. I just fire standard ammo in my AI’s to expand the cases. Perfectly fine for plinking. [/QUOTE]
