    *custom dillon 550 expander*watch this video

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxbHoB_ytZs

    I JUST RECIEVED MY .4515 45 ACP EXPANDER IN THIS VIDEO.

    I SHOULD HAVE MY .3585 EXPANDER FOR MY .359 38 SPEACIAL LOADS.
    SOME OTHER FORUM MEMBERS ARE ALREADY ORDERING OTHERS LIKE A 30 CARBINE STYLE EXPANDER SIZED.3085 WITH A .310 STEP LIKE A LYMAN M DIE FOR THE 300 BLACK OUT.

    Geoff @ GS Custom is affordable quick and accurate on his specs.
    He sells on ebay but ya gotta specify expander for case mouth or a funnel like a bottle neck rifle.

    I have been machining my own for the 550 for several years. I also make my own "M" dies for rifle calibers. Definitely a must for cast.

    How much does GS Custom charge for an expander? I use an XL650 that uses the same expander/funnel as the 550B.

    Anybody have an email address for G. S. Custom? For some reason ebay won't let me send him an inquiry through ebay.

    MY DIE WAS 27 BUCKS! CHEAP IMHO.

    Be specific when you order.

    mention if its an 9mm height or 38 special...

    if you need a 300 blackout expander than you need a modified 30 carbine expander as opposed to a funnel for the J type that wont expand the neck.

    I have used GS for a while.
    They will also make totally custom ones too.
    Like a 22 cal pistol time.
    Don't like being hammered by the Cast Boolits Staff, then don't be a nail.
    The rules are simple to follow.
