Bad thing about making brass for the AM..for best loading and longevity it is best to thin the inside of the case so you'll need a inside neck reamer of 429 size 430 is ok too. Good taper crimp is necessary Don't use 22-250 cases as they have too much body taper and you lose cases(did that many years ago. 243 and 308 are kinda best. They also have to be correct length as they headspace on the mouth of the case. Much much easier to buy 'em if ya can. Try Huntingdons too. They quite often have hard to find cases. After making so many cases for this in the past... Being the PITA that it is..buy 'em if ya can..

Good idea, great looking gun, bad gun design. I used to sit and watch at the range years ago every time a new guy showed up with an AM. I do not think I ever saw one make 50 rounds without one or both side rails falling off and the retaining screws go flying. Check the screws after ever 10 rounds or so.
Do not put your off hand on top of and around your shooting hand wrist when it gets tired. That will get you a dead paw. Watched as a guy did that once, he pulled the trigger before I could stop him. Today he has one good hand. That AM bolt under recoil has no mercy. Ed
