    Herters?

    Bought some CH swag dies awhile back and was pulling them out to work with them and noticed the 357 set had some extra pieces.

    This nose punch is marked 308 but never seen one like this. I'm guessing it's herters brand?

    And this rod mics out at 375ish.


    Any ideas as to who manufactured these?

    The top one definitely looks like a Herter's punch. The base was machined like a rimless cartridge case to fit a Herter's shell holder in one of their presses.

    The lower one looks like a link pin. It appears to have grooves for circlips at the ends. The red paint suggests it is maybe for a Swag-O-Magic press, but that's just a guess.

    Figured that was a herters punch.

    Doesn't have any grooves. Straight pin. Pics make it look like it does though.
