Adapter for 50 BMG?

[canuck4570]

thank you

who makes it out of curiosity

[Taterhead]

That was my first thought (50 BMG), but the hole for dies is tiny. Looks to be smaller than standard dies. Maybe a removable insert?

same here Taterhead.... and why would they advertise this on where the sell sharp rifles
the mystery continue

[Screwbolts]

It looks to me like a LEE adaption on a Redding Press. LMAO

It can not possibly be a 50BMG set up. not long enough stroke.

that makes sense...... since it is pictured on shiloh sharp site......

still waiting for answer from shiloh

[Markopolo]

There is the pic for all to see...

Whatever it is I doubt if it comes with the press from Shiloh.It is certainly not mentioned with the ad listing.

[canuck4570]

just received a answer from Shiloh
in is a inline seating accessories for cartridge such a 45-110 also used for compression die for black powder in these extra long brass....

[MT Chambers]

That is so you can mount the press upside down on your bench and size boolits.

[canuck4570]

that is not what is explain inline bullet seater......

[Wayne Smith]

I assume that there is a die that screws into the apparatus.

[canuck4570]

if that is the case you would have to extend the ram
it is not shown in the picture
I think has you say a die at top and a ram extension would permit this operation
given a loading window large enough for long cartridge
