I'd be curious to know if a 22Mag case could be formed into a VLD for 22-250....that would be interesting :)[/quote

Just to add an up date, I do not know about a VLD but the .22 mag jacket can be drawn and made into a nice flat base. In this case a 69gn open tip.

Swaging your own projectiles is the ultimate in flexibility.

They make really nice ULDs as well Bill but getting hold of magnum cases is a more difficult proposition.
that being said I worked out if I could get enough HMR shells and cut them off at the shoulder with a mini drop saw you can make really nice frangible 80 and 90 gr FBOTs.
