Hey guys, I just bought two of these, one in 50 and the other in 58 cal. They work slick as snail snot. The guy who makes them is retired from Ruger. he made up a bunch of them back in the 70s ans is selling them off on ebag as we speak. These are really well-made tools.

I just use a luber-sizer.Custom dies can be had for 20-40 bucks up to .585 or so.They are thinn walled but I have put thousands of rounds through them with no problem.Heck that is all I ran through mine for first 15 years.

Nice thing about this is that it's portable. I just take it to the range and lube before I load. No lube mess that way.

Yup, it sure does except the Meacham is a newer more expensive deal taking different sizer rings. The one omgb is showing is caliber specific.

The Meacham tool actually sizes the bullet and as such, is interchangable with different calibers provided you have the extra collets. This tool is caliber specific and does not size, it only lubes. For BPCR that isn't an issue as few shooters in that group actually size their bullets. likewise, ML shoots don't size either.

For what it is, a luber, it is very handy and really effective. Anyone who has lubed maxi or minnie bullets by hand and gotten that lube all over creation and back knows that there has to be a better way. This is that better way.

Here is an auction # for one - 160095773268
then you can look at the seller's other items to see those for the other calibers.

If you send me a PM I'll send you his direct email. he just might be willing to sell you one off ebay. I know he has a stash of them but ..... I'm not sure how many. He told me that this was all NOS from back in the 70s.
