I have been thinking about getting a cannelure tool and I was wondering what is a good one that isn't too expensive.
Also are there any available in Canada or will I have to order one south of the border?
If I do have to go south of the border what is the one that CH4D makes like.
At this point I only need it if I want to try copper jacketed/plated bullets in my 400 corbon.
I am sure that if I do get one I will find more uses for it than just the 400 corbon, just looking to see where the best place is to get one.

Be careful when putting a cannelure on plated bullets. Jacketed are usually OK because the jacket is quite thick but it is very easy to cut through copper plating which can cause some problems.
 
Thanks blaser.306 and ted_dent for the info.
While doing a bit of searching I came across a guy that made his own out of a can opener, I might give that a try first and see what happens.
