Wow, I was about to pull the trigger with this guy too. Glad I didn't buy from him. Anyone know if DanR or BT Sniper still producing a .224 swage set?

I changed some emails with Dan few days ago and he stated that doubled the price for his dies set up to 600$.
According that it is not worthy any more and If I were you, I would ask for BT's set.
That is odd. I just talked to him a week ago on the phone. Colt that is.

"Consequently we move away from other shooters to remain focused on our passion, as our ideas are quickly dismissed or misunderstood by others. Sharing does not come easily for swagers, not because they are necessarily selfish, but because they have been whittling away in their only little world for so long, that being able to relate to others what they understand is no simple task."

Okay, here's the deal guys. I am not MIA, i didnt skip out with anyones money, i didnt try to cheat anyone. About a month ago, i got bit by a brown recluse spider on my elbow. It wasnt good, it rotted my elbow away down to the bone for the most part, then while that was on the mend, the infection from the spider bite got into my blood, and made me very very sick. It didnt look good.... Anyhow, im not trying to make excuses or anyhing. that is just what is going on, im on the mend now. As for the shipping problem, i confused your dies, and another customers dies, and both were returned to me last friday marked undeliverable. If you want your money back, PM me, ill give your money back and sell the dies elsewhere, it was an honest mistake. Either way, i have my cell phone back with me now, so give me a call.

I just spoke to Colt's mother on the phone, she sounds like a darling of a lady.
Colt is recovering well from the spider bite and his dear ol' dad has been changing the dressings daily for him.. There are a few parcels returned to her address and one of them was initially destined for Nebraska, so if thats your address I know where your order is, anyways dear ol' mom there says Colt should be up and at em pretty quick and first thing on his adgenda is to reply to all the emails and PM's he has not been answering.
I will be waiting for a reply any ideal on the time frame we may be looking at before hes back up to responding to PMs or making phone calls?

That question/concern was not answered with something that I would feel comfortable writing in stone here only to be quoted in the future. She said she would be talking to him tonight and would pass on our best wishes and concerns.
Been bit by one of those spiders, wasn't pleasant.
Not only is the spider venemous, it has one of the dirtiest bites you can get. Every time you need to get an antibiotic because it will cause a cellulitis infection. Very debilitating. See a Dr.

Spiders are no fun been there done that.
Would love to hear from you. If you have time please ship the dies, I would rather have the dies than a refund.
Just let me know whats going on.
I don't have a horse in the race, nor am I waiting on any tooling from this fellow.
