OK Guys and Gals
This for you smarter Math types here, (yes, there is several here ),
Can you help me figure this information out, KEEP IT SIMPLE, Please,
I am NO MATH Major, just a student from the school of Hard Knocks ..LoL
Is there a better/simpler way to figure these cone degree angles out?
I need this information, so I can make skirt pins for sizing/uni-forming pellets in the 4 pellet press's, in these 4 calibers, 17, 20, 22, 25 calibers to fit my rifles/pistols, etc.
You have this information from pellet measurements, to figure the missing/needed info out. All these measurements are as accurate as possible, when measuring.
20 caliber,
Weight = 14.10 gr
Head Dia = .199"
O/S skirt Dia= .202"
I/S skirt Dia = .156" = (2x skirt thickness subtracted from O/S skirt Dia)?
O/S waist Dia = 0.140"
I/S waist Dia = .120"
O/S skirt Length = .150"
I/S skirt Depth = .084"
Skirt Thickness .023" to .024" (average)
Bearing Length = .213"
Overall length = .296"
Inside skirt angle (degree)* =
? = 12.09*
Outside skirt angle (degree)* =
? = 11.67*
Do you need more information, this is what I have been using,

Skirt Depth = Is from the bottom of the skirt to the top of the inside waist,
that the bolt probe pushes against.
Bearing length = Is from the center of the head diameter band to end of skirt length.
Skirt angle = the degree of the inside and outside skirt cone angles/dimensions.
Thank you, your input is greatly appreciated
