At large, whereabouts unknown.
I've has a love/hate relationship with gas checks from the beginning. While they have their benefits, they do cost money. The extra handling annoys some, but it has never really bothered me. I'm rereading Todd Spottis article on Rick, and cast bullets in his Freedom arms again, and I have some questions on gaschecks, while aimed specifically to Rick, everybodys input is welcome and appreciated as always.
I always anneal my copper gaschecks, I didn't see annealing mentioned in the articles, have you ever found it beneficial?
I like your gascheck tool, and want to make one. do you have any specific measurements for yours, and are you tapping the too with a hammer, or how are you using it?
Have you experimented with aluminum gas checks vs copper crimp ons for accuracy & consistency?
Once again, I encourage others to add their questions and comments to this thread. For those of you who haven't seen these articles, I'm adding the links below.
