Using a gas check maker tool or die is a relatively simple process that can be done with the right equipment and some basic knowledge. Here are the general steps for using a gas check maker tool:
- Choose the right gas check maker tool: First, you will need to select the right gas check maker tool for your specific bullet and cartridge combination. The tool or die should be the same caliber as the bullet you are reloading.
- Prepare the gas check material: Next, you will need to prepare the gas check material. Gas checks are usually made from thin copper or brass sheet metal. The metal is cut into small discs that are slightly larger in diameter than the base of the bullet. You can use a punch or a coin cutter to create the discs.
- Place the gas check material into the tool or die: Once you have your gas check material, place a disc into the gas check maker tool or die. Make sure it is centered and level.
- Apply pressure to the tool or die: With the gas check disc in place, you will need to apply pressure to the tool or die. This can be done with a press or hammer. Follow the instructions that come with your specific gas check maker tool or die to determine the correct pressure.
- Remove the gas check: After applying pressure to the tool or die, remove the gas check from the tool or die. Inspect it for any defects or irregularities, and make sure it is flat and even.
- Seat the gas check on the bullet: The final step is to seat the gas check on the base of the bullet. This is typically done using a gas check seater tool or press. Follow the instructions that come with your specific tool to ensure proper seating of the gas check.
It's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. Improperly made gas checks can affect the accuracy and safety of your reloaded ammunition. If you're unsure about the process or have any questions, it's always a good idea to consult with an experienced reloader or seek out additional resources.
