    It says "holly wood gun shot Swage die"



    It's clearly got a spring in it.


    Hole inside measures .278

    Any ideas? I have no idea where this thing came from found it in my mold box. Odd usually i'm slightly more organized.

    Lord, make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true and my hand faster than those who would seek to destroy me. Grant me victory over my foes and those that wish to harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be “If only I had my gun”; and Lord if today is truly the day that You call me home, let me die in a pile of brass.



    I am out of town, enjoy your holidays.

    That is the lower half of a hollywood swage set. Holds the cup and core. the spud with nut fit in the shellholder bore of the hollywood senior press. The missing top half, the nose forming portion, is 7/8-14 threaded and fits in the normal die bore. I think the smaller shaft at the bottom is the ejector for the finiished bullt --
    I have two sets which are similar -- but for 30 and 44 calibers.
