Default 12 Caliber jacketed bullets?

Is anyone on here still making 12 caliber jacketed lead core bullets? I’m fighting trying to reduce jackets to 12 caliber and wanted to check here for information rather than reinventing the wheel.

Thanks for any information you might have,

Carl C.

We just used the bleed whiskers from the 35g core for die.

They are not the easiest to make and you have to keep the pressure very consistent and rather low

Default 12 Caliber jacket production.

Reed, what length jackets were you able to make?
Did you have to anneal them to draw them down?

Thanks for any information you can share on producing the jackets,

Carl C.
