I want to keep the tapered case so it will work through a sav 99 22 h.p. rotor if I go that way. was actually offered improved dies at a great price
have formedcases from 30/30. I lubed only insideneck a dthe case body. used a 25/35 die initially. Trimmed and same procedure with the zipperdie. best bet is to size slowly to avoid shoulder crumpling.trim again and that is it. nodout
I have a 99 with a takedown fore end. Barrel is fixed and chambered for the 219 zipper.
The 219Z and 22HP are so close dimensionally that you can only tell visually by the long neck on the HP.
The zipper works great in a 22HP rotor, but I'll bet the improved case will too.
finding brass is always the issue, no matter which one you choose.
Here's my 219Z
