Making 303 Blanks?

[Alex_Zues]

I do re-enacting, and an idea came across me, I just got a reloading press, and there's plenty of 303 brass out there. Anyone know how to make blank 303brit rounds for ww1/2? Thanks.

Williams Arms in Port Perry has a bunch of real ones in stock.

CH4D probably has or can make dies for this.

Whatever you do be careful, I'm sure you already know about blank safety.

CH4D (www.ch4d.com/) has dies for cartridges that haven't even been invented yet Their die list is eye-watering. (As I recall they have five or six ".303" dies alone.) To load blanks I think you need a special star crimp die.
