Abstract: A method and tooling for forming a cartridge case blank comprising backward extruding a tube from a length of wire stock in multiple backward extrusion steps with progressive tooling to obtain an intermediate blank that can be finish drawn without a preceding annealing step and which if otherwise not subjected to multiple backward extrusion steps, would require annealing prior to finish drawing to avoid tearing.

Abstract: A guidance tool guides movement of an adjustment tool toward an adjustment member of an autonomous cruise control (ACC) assembly. The ACC assembly is moveably coupled to a vehicle body, and the adjustment member is adjustable with the adjustment tool to change a position of the ACC assembly relative to the vehicle body. The guidance tool includes an attachment member that removably attaches to the ACC assembly. The guidance tool also includes a guide surface that guides the adjustment tool toward the adjustment member when the attachment member is removably attached to the ACC assembly.
