Reloading Rimfire Brass, Cont.

Make a paste using strike-anywhere match heads and water, tuck it into the rim and let it dry thoroughly. Load the brass with 3fg and crimp with a wire stripper modified by a Dremel using a small dia. cylindrical stone. Bevel the crimping edges to about 1/32 wide.
There are two methods of removing matchtips; one way is to gently roll a match under your sole until the head falls off, the other is to slowly and carefully use a single edged razor blade. This is best done outdoors with safety glasses. You want the tips only, not the heads.
