Russian Reloads Partizan Mk V

Has anyone tried the Russian Reloads Partizan Mk V to convert GP11 rounds to use small rifle boxer primers? Looks interesting.

I wonder how you get the boxer primers out after you fire them. The Berdan is still seated, probably crimped in. Is a new center hole also drilled through the case?

It would take an age to convert them properly I think. De-prime for Berdan and remove the anvil, drill the new flash hole, line the primer pocket... I guess small rifle magnum would carry the same smack as large rifle primers.

If I read the instructions right, the Berdan primers stay in and act as the new seat for the boxer primers. They get drilled through from the outside.

the Berdan primers stay in

I see, so that's the liner but still we'd need to remove the anvil and drill a flash hole to clear them out next depriming session.

Dreadful web site, has absolutely no details on how it works.

Only review was how the item was backordered in September, after the payment was made.
