Hello, deepcore. I have been doing this for quite some time. I have an original .577/.450 Martini-Henry rifle, that I have turned up a dozen cases for on the lathe. I bored them to hold a max. of 70gr. black, as I thought this was plenty..not the 85+ of the originals. I use small plastic vials to hold various weighed charges of smokeless..these are held in wooden loading blocks labeled on each row as to the charge weight. I load at range with small arbor press & custom die I made.
