Making an Ejector for a Dutch M1871/88 Beaumont

The Dutch Model 1871/88 Beaumont rifle fires an 11x52mm black powder cartridge. For those that want to shoot these rifles, proper brass is typically unavailable. However, it can be formed from a few other cartridges that are close in dimension, 50-90 Sharps is probably the easiest of those to obtain. In this video, I show how to form it into 11x52 Beaumont without a proper die set. I then test shoot them in the rifle, and then discuss how to reload the cases.
