I just want to pass on a tip I found on Accurate Shooter.
You can make cases from 45-70 brass by turning a steel rod down to .460 and then running it into the 45-70 case to expand the base.
It works great and I have not had a case failure yet. I have loaded some cases 8 times, no problem. I used to have case splits at 2 or 3 loadings.You still have to turn down the rim for the 11mm or 43 mauser but the rim works OK for the 43 spanish in my Rem. rolling block. The cases are shorter than the original but that has been no problem except for crimping and I cut down the seating and crimping die to handle that.
Good shooting.
