Advice required on how to make a .338 Lapua Magnum bullet pen.

[alpha1]

Hi, Guys, I have just prepped 120 .338 Lapua magnum brass cases.
I would like to make a couple of pens from some of the cases I have bullets for them. I know some of you do this could you advise me on the best way to turn them into pens.

Hi Dave, I have some .338 too.....they make good fountain pens if you cut them about......Woody has done a load with Omega kits and retro kits.....it depends what kit you have access too.....metal lathe....reloading press....bullet heads???

I have a metal lathe. A mill two reloading press,s and reloading dies in .338. I have some 250 grain bullets. I have some Omega kits and some retro kits.

I think the easiest way is to turn a wooden sleeve to fit inside the trimmed case, I do this with the .500 nitros.....cut some groove's and just glue in.

Another method is to use real bullet heads and either slimline kits or cigar kits
You need to glue a tube into the bottom of the case.....I fill with resin then drill back out and glue a tube in....I find that easiest
