Curious to know if anyone currently cutting down their .45 Colt cases for C45S is using this specific jig on EBay with your HF chop saw? If so, I’m curious what length it cuts on average as it is fixed vs being “adjustable”. A specific question, looking for a specific answer, THANKS! https://ebay.io/m/zRur14 I’m using the one below that uses the existing clamp on the HF Warrior chop saw. https://ebay.io/m/jPWYcm It is adjustable but not very precise. Either 0.905” or 0.885” (spec is “0.892-0.897”) which requires trimming or is too short.

It generated a power factor of 100 out of my 5.5” NMV’s for me back in May Cost to reload this ammo runs from $0.40-$0.67/round assuming you have to buy all the components at today’s prices. UPDATE My calculated cost to reload Cowboy 45 Special at today’s new component cost is as follows: 1. STAR. case: $0.31 ($.31-$.39) 2. Primer: $0.060-$.075 3. Powder. $0.020-0.030 4. 180 grn HT. $0.16 Total /rnd: $0.55 -$0.675 Ranges depend upon how you buy components and will move lower over time as the cases can be reloaded many times.
