I have several of Mr. Niedner's bullet making tools, all made for an arbor press. I need to go through it all and see what's there. What is the size of your core wire for .22's?

That's got to take a heck of a lot of pressure to split that die.

Just making a Mann-Niedner base-band bullet takes about thirteen steps from factory bullet to finished product. Like all this sort of stuff very time consuming, Niedner's wife did a lot of core casting and bullet making.
