ABSTRACT:
For resizing an ammunition cartridge casing, an expandable and contractible collet is surrounded by an axially movable internally tapered sleeve. An axially movable headed shaft for supporting a cartridge casing from its flanged end is in the collet. Shifting the sleeve in one direction opens the collet and simultaneous retraction of the shaft lets the cartridge casing drop into the collet. Shifting the sleeve in the opposite direction causes the collet to contract and resize the cylindrical casing and its flange. Returning the sleeve to its initial position allows the collet to expand and simultaneous elevation of the shaft lifts the resized casing up to the top of a work table in position to be removed by hand or to be moved to a new work station for performance of other steps connected with cartridge reloading if the resizer is built into a reloading device.
