    I’ll post a few pics.
    I found them in my gun shop and then saw some articles on gun magazines, so I asked and received super positive info.
    I was a tad scheptical, but must admit it is way betterthan I expected.
    The only problem it has is that 50% of the primers stick out after shooting, so the cylinder does not turn easily. But I’ll figure out something.
    Looking at the great accuracy, I’ll buy also the 9mm version.

    You get the same thing when making blanks, it is better if the flash holes are drilled to a larger size.

    Which is normal for what you're doing. There's no rearward pressures on the cartridge so that's what happens.
