Unfortunately, my CerroSafe is buried...

in a muchly disassembled shop. Long story, but I decided to move my shop to the other side of the basement. Still working on that...

I'll have to see how accessible it is and try for a quick cast. I know assumptions are dangerous but I am assuming that, other than the throat, it isn't going to show me much more than a fired case does. Slugging the bore is definitely on the docket...make sure nothing is out of the ordinary there. Twist will also be verified assuming the 17 caliber rod works as planned.

Not sure how I might recover a bullet to see if the rifling is stripped. Years past, we shot into snow banks out of which recovered bullets are largely undisturbed but we're actually a little short on snow this year....have to cogitate on this for a while.

Thanks!
