8.15x46r hand tools

Saw the Berdan prime/reprime hand tool on the gunsmithing section. Just thought I would share the tools I found several years ago at a gun show. The deprime tool is only labeled 8mm. The inline bullet seater has 8 mm 461/2 on the top. My ring stop bullet will not fit. Powder measure is not labeled, but has the same style knurling

Vey neat indeed. I would think that tools such as yours are fairly rare in this country. Lots of schuetzen rifles were brought here after the war, but doubt that many tools were.

Thanks, I was hoping to see or hear about others. I have not used these yet. I have another deprime tool marked 12mm, that has an adapter for 8mm.

I wish I had one - instead I'm working on machining a replica. Is the insight of the seater die a straight cylinder or is it shaped to the 8.15x46R cartridge? Is there any adjustment for the depth the plug pushes the bullet down?  Also does the powder measure have an adjustment? Do you know what volume/charge weight it is set to?

Thanks!
