Don't know why, but I want to make some blanks for my .45 Colt.
Someone must have done this before and could share their experience. I do not want to have to re-invent the wheel.
I am thinking that if I take the primed .45 Colt shell and load it with powder, all I will have to do is place a couple of pieces of card board over the powder and crimp it. Maybe I can seal it in place like you do with a shotgun shell.
What are the dangers involved and what should be avoided?
What types of powder should/should not be used?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and ideas.
