ABSTRACT:
A tool for mounting a cartridge case to a drill chuck for rotating the cartridge case about its longitudinal axis for the purpose of cleaning and polishing the cartridge case. The tool comprises a body member having a bore extending axially from one end thereof to the other end, with at least a portion of the bore being internally threaded. One end of the body member is provided with an undercut slot extending from the periphery thereof inwardly to encompass the bore therein. The undercut slot is adapted to receive the flanged end of a universal cartridge case shellholders. A shaft, at least a portion thereof having external threads, is positioned within the bore in the body member so that the threads on the shaft engage the threads of the bore. The shaft is of sufficient length to extend through the bore in the body member from said one end thereof to and beyond the other end so as to project outwardly from the other end. In using the tool, a shellholder which is adapted to engage the base of the cartridges to be cleaned is inserted into the undercut slot in the end of the tool. A cartridge case is mounted to the shellholder so that the cartridge case extends outwardly from the body member of the tool in axial alignment with the bore in the body member. The shaft is then advanced in the bore of the body member to make firm contact with the base of the cartridge case, and thereby bind the body member, shaft, and cartridge case in locked engagement as a rigid unit. The projecting end of the shaft is connected to a drill chuck for rotation of the cartridge. The rotating cartridge case is easily cleaned and polished by contacting it with a mildly abrasive material such as steel wool.
