Brings up a web site but I'll be darned if I can get it to give me any information except his contact info, a phone number.
That's all there is, and don't bother with the email address he lists.
Call him, or send a letter. He'll send you a catalog, and/or answer any questions you have.

Yes he does and may I say a damn fine setup as well. I just got a press and dies for .224 (minus de rim die) for under 650. I will shoot OP message about email contact info that he actually replies to as well. If you can wait 6 months or so I think you will find him more than adequate.
Load development.

Thanks for all of the info guys! I dropped him an email this morning and within 2 hours he replied with his catalog. I then got him on the phone and he is a pleasure to speak to. His stuff is SUPER backordered! He's talking 6-8 months!! Yikes.

Either Copper or Brass jackets. I think with the de rim die it is another 95 bucks or so. I already had the de rim die that I picked up for cheap and had another on the site modify the punch for me.

I've got the itch, but don't got the scratch.
