Anyone know where I can get one? I tried Google & can't find Hanned Line. For what it's worth Gary I can't get the link to Brownells to work either.

The Hanned tool and Paco's accurizer are two different things. I have an early version of Paco's tool.

If I remember right the hanned line was just a die for filing the round nose off the bullet to create a flat point. They have been out of business for some time.

CCI made a SGB bullet for a few years I don't know if they still do.


If it jams force it! If it breaks it needed replacing anyway.

That Accurizer looks interesting. A bit spendy though. Damn I wish I'd bought one years ago. Anybody out there have an Accurizer? I've got kids comming up to shooting age.

Well that's a long story. I got mine back in 2002 when he first started making them. It only came with 2 punches. One makes the wide flat point and the other makes the hollow point. I think he has a few more punches to offer for different points now.

Anyway I tried it and it worked great, after a few times you get the feel for the right amount of strike and the points come out consistant as to how you want them. Paco's design is to swedge the bullet diameter up to fill the bore on guns with .224" barrels. Most 22 ammo is in the .222"-223" range. Also the radical tip designs deliver more energy to the target than the round nose just passing thru small game. The flat/cupped ones cut paper like a wad cutter, very clear and defined holes. I didn't try mine on any game just paper. Actually mine would undersize the ammo at about .222". So I sent Paco an e-mail and he said send it back and he would fix it. A few tools got out without the finish reaming done. So I put it on the shelf with all the intensions of sending it back, well you know how life goes and after a few years passed I came across it again still on the same shelf. LOL I guess I should send it back and get the tool fixed and the extra punches also.

It's kind of interesting pounding on a live round. The first time I tried it I had on leather gloves a heavy Carhart jacket and a face shield. LOL<LOL

There's a Phase 4 model out there now...It has four forming chambers .222 thru .225 and it comes with all the rods for $75.
