Belding & Mull Mod 26 Bullet Seater
This is my very much loved B&M 22-250 bullet seater. It came to me many moons ago minus the base.
I use it on a piece of cold rolled steel plate that a friend ran an end mill down in and drilled a hole so the primer doesn’t sit on a hard surface. I am guessing that the base would be the same for 308, 243, 30-06 and God knows how many more. Does anyone have a B&M Seater for this case family with the original base they can take the dimensions from? It would not be difficult to turn a proper base for it on the end of a piece of round bar stock… if I had the dimensions. I can’t tell you why it is important enough to me to bother making a matching base, it works real well in what I have. |

This info might be of some use to you. My Wilson seater die body measures .998"OD. Sinclair International offers a Wilson stainless steel seater die base, could be modified if you want one cup style.
https://www.sinclairintl.com/reloadi...prod56222.aspx Wilson seaters usually come with a cup style base shown in the pic below.

I think it would be easier to turn one on the end of a piece of round bar stock then cut it off using a parting tool than to attempt to modify something that exists.
I have Wilson in-line seating dies and bases as well, but it has always bothered me to not have a correct base for this die. They are shown in Belding and Mull Handbooks, but not in sufficient detail to make a copy. I have seen photos of others over the years and found this photo of four Belding & Mull seating dies and a couple sizer dies that has a base in the photo. I’m just hoping that someone has a base for a die from this family and would photograph both sides and share the dimensions. Last edited by JDHasty; 03-17-2022 at 09:32 AM. |
