Back to the Speed Die

GB had a single listing for one in .45ACP and shipping may be more than the item cost. I put in a bid anyway. This is more of a curiosity thing than anything else. I'll report back (assuming I win)...

Now that's one that might prove interesting. Can't see a high volume production run using it, but find it intriguing nonetheless. I really appreciated the carbide sizing ring as the Lee "whack-a-mole" loader I'd been using didn't full length size the brass, leading to issues in chambering brass that had been shot in loose chambers. I wonder how well the 45 ACP sizer will do.

Have the .44 speed die. Works as well as any .44 carbide sizer.

Well, I "won"...

and an $8 die is now a $22 die delivered! Yeah, I know shipping is up all over and I think I recall USPS was raising their Flat Rate prices yet again. Still a bit of a jump. Oh well, I shook out the couch cushions and got 'er done.

Looking forward to your report once you get it in hand. :-)
