Peter, I just put the die and the US mail. I think it takes about 10 days to make the trip. Here are a couple of helpful hints that will make the die work better. First anneal the case you intend to use. If you have an 8x57 or 7x57 full length sizing die (or something similar) run the 243 case through it first. The 243 family of cartridges are almost straight wall and if you run it through and intermediated die it will put some taper to the case and ease the force it takes to push it through the die. The best lubricant I have found is a water soluable lubricant that we use on PVC underground pipe on the farm. The PVC pipe has a rubber gasket made into the female end of the pipe that makes it very difficult to push the male end into it. Works great on resizing cases. I apply it with my fingers, too much around the neck will case the case to wrinkly. After two or three cases you will solve that. Let me know when it arrives and how you like it. If for some reason it does not suit you, let me know and I'll refund your money and you can use the die for a paper weight. I'll send a pm about the price and shipping. riceone.
Arrived today
Roy, the die arrived today. I will now get some cases to convert and see how it works. Thank you.
