Anybody swaging a .25 cal 60 grain Altaros Queen slug?

I'm considering swaging my own slugs and will consider all type of swag presses.

But first I want to test slugs made from different equipment.

Name your price for at least 100 pieces of a slug exactly or similar to the
.25 cal 60 grain Altaros Queen slugs.

I doubt they would perform as well. If they could be swaged they would be because of lower cost and faster production. They lathe turn them for a reason, that's the way they can keep quality and consistency of the product at a high level. However maybe close enough so that it doesn't matter considering the cost savings.

I asked Miha @ mp-molds.com if there were any plans to replicate the Altaros design. I never got a reply.

They lathe turn them because you can't swage a smooth boatail very easily. It can be done, though.

The rebated boatail...which is easy to swage is not much different in the wind. Maybe 2-3% more drift. Maybe

I'm pretty sure that Corbin could make something similar..not the same but pretty close..and I understand your question because I soon will get rid of any gun I can't cast or sway bullet ls for .. by now I just keep hoarding lead.. the CNC turned bullet came in the PB spot to make solid copper bullet with a really high BC .. like the ones in the pic we still not shooting anything like that, me for my use don't see the need for high dollar slug spending.. so I either have the dies made . Or buy a cnc if I see the need to ..
