Whether or not you're a reloader is not important. Just get the dies made. You will be able to find someone knowledgeable as a reloader to figure out how to use them, if you don't reload. Lee will also do this as many of the smaller die makers. In fact, a few of them that cater to the benchrest crowd only work this way.

Recoil Rob Sidelock Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 5,208 Likes: 81	Originally Posted By: Jakearoo Kind of interesting that most of the response on this thread is about rifles. RCC There's more you can do to rifles when you're not a pro, less movin' parts, less to screw up. I tend to work on my rifles and do simple stuff on my SxS's but for serious shotgun work I leave it to a pro. BTW, does buying a beat up old gun and sending to someone for a rehab constitute a "project"? Seems that if you're going to call something a project you should have a little more hand in it than boxing it up. My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income. - Errol Flynn
