I bought an estate of reloading stuff some time ago and it’s full of items that are a mystery to me. I’d like some help IDing some if y’all are game.

Stripper clips of some sort

Muzzle brake. Long one Threads look coarse. Smaller one is just a cone threads are fine not 5/8-24 for sure on either

Jig of some sort? Looks like a front sight tool, but for a pretty big square post.

Y shaped do-hicky in last photo is the tool to stake a new front sight on an 1911 series slide.

Thing next to it might be a nipple wench for removing the "cone" of some Black Powder arm.

Well a little investigating says that T thing is a FAL front sight tool.
That led to this mystery thing. It’s a FAL extractor tool.

The stripper clip looks like a US caliber .30. The two nubs suggest it's for the 1903. (The M-14 strippers have a center nub so they will "reach" into the reciever well, or fit the magazine filler.)
Looks like your right.
1942 stamp LC 30-06 loads.

Ya might not wanna shoot that last bullet....or the first one i guess, depending on how the clip was aligned...
I have several hundred like that. If you push on the bullet they all split. Won’t be hard to pull! No telling how long they have been loaded all 40’s stamp. Plan is to cut them into 460 Rowland’s
