New calibers for Star Reloader.
« on: October 23, 2012, 09:37:41 pm »
  Has any one converted their Stars for any other calibers. I have done some of my reloaders to 45 GAP, 45 Rowland, 45 winchester mag. 357 Sig. 40 S&W, 10mm 32 Auto,32 Mag. and 45 Auto Rim.  Working on converting a Star to load 50 AE.  does anyone have any other conversions that they have done?  Would like some Input.
        Thanks Bob

What do you mean by converted?

I have 25 ACP, 32 Auto, 32 S&W Long, 30 Carbine, .380 Auto, 9 MM, 38 Special, 357 Magnum, 38 Super, 40 S&W/10MM. 41 Magnum, 44 Magnum, 45 ACP, 45 Auto Rim, 45 Long Colt, and .223.   These are all with 11/16-24 Dies

I also put together a 32-20 machine for another forum member using a Berdon tool head and 7/8-14 Dies.   

I'm in the process of building a machine for myself in .308 using a Hornady powder measure rather than a standard Star type powder housing and slide.  I'm using a long column Berdon machine for this, but I think there is enough clearance to do it with a Star.  Ths also uses 7/8-14 dies.
