      I don’t know about you, but I have great trouble installing checks on rifle bullets when using alloys such as #2 or lino.  The shank grows too much compared to COWW or 20/1.  Handgun calipers such as 38/357, 44 mag or 45 Colt that use checks do not seem to be a problem.  22 caliber, and 8 mm are problematic for me.  I’m sure other calibers such as .30, 6.5, 7mm would greatly benefit as well.

      A ring with an inside cutter and an outside that is nurled or textured that can be finger turned to accurately cut the shank would be a great aid.

      The ring could be countersunk to align with the bullet body.

      A selection of 5 or 6 calibers would take care of most everything.

      What do you think?
