Cannelure Tool

I have a question or two about the cannelure tool made by CH 4D.



I want to use some 45 acp bullets, Zero 230 gr JHP, and load a few +P 45 Colt loads to shoot out of my NM Blackhawk. I won't be doing a lot of bullets cause Brad's Cowboy #1's just shoot to good (and cheaper to boot) but I would like to give some a try.

After a search on the forum here I see that some of ya'll have used this tool.
So my question, how well will it work for what I'm wanting to do?

Does anybody have one that you don't need and could be talked out of it? (read cheap)

I have one, and I've left instructions for them to add a pocket in the coffin for it when I die....

Well, that pretty much answers both questions right there.
yep, it works
and
NO I ain't gonna get yours.

It sounds to me like it is exactly what I need. So I guess I need to do some serious looking.

I appreciate ya'll telling me your firsthand experience with them.

originally quoted by jmorris;
I have one, if you happen to shoot with MVSA, I will bring it up there if you want to play with it. Unless you need one, your bullets are pulling, you don't want one.

That is awfully [strike]nice[/strike] High Road of you, Sir. Thank you.

To be honest I didn't even know what MVSA was until I googled it. Looks really nice. I'm going to look the website over some more later. But, no I don't reckon I'll be there but I sure do thank you for the offer.

Thanks Fred, I saw that deal too.

CraigC, I have looked at the one Corbin sells, on their website, but it's almost twice the price of the one made by CH-4D. But that does bring another question to mind.

Does anyone else make a cannelure tool besides CH-4D and Corbin? Those are the only 2 I remember seeing anything about.

Does anybody else make one??

I've had a good offer for a swap but he mostly needs rifle and 44 mag reloading supplies.

>Here's where I'm looking.<

The problem is I don't do a lot of rifle loading so I have very little with which to barter.
And while I load for about 10 different handgun calibers ->


-> 44 isn't one of them. :banghead:
