If anyone is reloading the Speer or magma? Hollow base wad cutter bullet for their 38 conversion could you measure the thickness of the skirt for me.

I don't have the bullets you mention, but here are a couple of my home-cast RFN. I am unable to actually measure the skirt as the cavity is cone shaped. Here is a visual though. Maybe you can
make a rough estimation.

Richard did a very in-depth article about his reloading adventure with the HBWC in .38 caliber. I believe he had every measurement you could thing of. Let me see if I can find it.
