Oh, that was a Lewis receiver in the photos? My eye's could use a tune up! There was a time when I probably would have seen the strain screw in the photo... Love getting older.
Yes, the Brownell screw blanks are not the prettiest things in the world. As I recall, I have been cutting with 6-40 and 10-32 'fine' dies. I don't really want to touch the receiver with a tap. One can replace screw blanks but not receivers! I'll just play around with the adjuster on my dies till they turn into the receiver more smoothly. Thanks for the web sites.
I'll keep you posted on my progress.
