Title: PURCHASED STAR
Post by: askimball (Doc) on February 13, 2011, 05:49:31 pm
On the 25th of last month, I purchased a Universal, lots of extra dies, & Low & Behold I ended up with 4 extra heads...One was a Phelps w/.32 Dies (Black) & Shellplate.... :D ;D
(If anybody interested in the Dies & Shellplate I'll let them go for $200.00).
SOLD
Carrying on > after recent scrutiny, one was drilled out for 7/8" Dies....So much for origional....... ::) :o
With my RCBS, Dillon & Lee dies I'll try and set it up for .44 Magnum, say with RCBS Dies....
I'll probably have to get fc60 to make me a #16 - Shell Expander Plug....What else ??? ???
Any comments PLEASE.. :) 8)

You may need to have the end of the 44 Magnum sizing die turned down so that it will fit the recess in the shell plate.

Forgot about the Shellplate, with my limited funds that cost will be difficult... :-[ ??? :'(
MAYBE.. ??? If I can Sell/Swap the .32 Dies & Shellplate I can afford this :-[

.32 Dies & Shell Plate SOLD

What calibers do you have available? I am looking for 9mm 45 colt.

Hello!  I'm new here.  I recently purchased a 38 Universal from another memeber (a great guy). -- Anyway, I have experience with Lee dies, and I know thier carbide sizer reaches down lower than the other name brand dies.  I shoot 9mm and 40 S&W, both of which get that "bulge" from being fired from unsupported chambers (Ie. Glocks, etc).  When the die is set just a hair off of the shell plate, it should size your brass down to the webbing. -- And, it would be a fairly cheap venture...amybe 20 dollars.  Would be worth a try!
