New Video - How I convert 22 Hornet to .25 Stevens

There seems to be growing interest in shooting the .25 Stevens rimfire cartridge. I've been making reloadable .25 Stevens rimfire for a while now and thought there may be interest in seeing how I do it. I made a 2-part video series showing my process. Part 1 covers reforming .22 Hornet to .25 Stevens dimensions. Part 2 cover converting the case from centerfire to reloadable rimfire.

I hope you find it interesting.

Just thought I'd mention that the acorn caps Steve refers to in the videos are actually acorn blanks & are commonly used in "starter pistols" or blank pistols when training dogs.

If memory serves correctly, ramsets use these acorn blanks also. Just be aware that they come in different powers (designated by color).

Yes, Ramsets are much more powerful. Acorn blanks are very similar to small pistol primers.
