Thread: Burnside brass

  1. Burnside brass

    Just got very shootable Burnside-what`s best source for brass? S&S@$4.95? Nice folks in Tenn. want $6.25 each-is theirs any better? Archive search mentions Lodgewood, but web site doesn`t show Burn. cases. Who is Osborne? Any others? Also, .562 RB suggested, any make suitable conical mold? :?: :?:

    Re: Burnside brass

    There's two types of brass cases out there. One type has a flat bottom and the other has a concave bottom. The little sliding piece at the back of the breech block has a projection on it that will fit into the type with the concave bottom and provide a better gas seal. The flat bottom case will eventually hammer this projection flat. I got my cases from Lodgewood.

    Rapine made a Burnside mould, but he's out of business. You could try NEI Handtools for a .556 bullet.
