9 ton press ejection puch

[gunguychuck]

Does anybody here swage .224 bullets on a Herters 9 ton press. If so could you post a picture of the die and ejection punch. I have one for 38 bullets and cannot figure out how it works for bullets smaller than the ejection punch.

Chuck;

I made set of .224 dies, two required, core seating and point forming, for my 9 ton several years ago. I order to make the press work for smaller bullets I bored the ejection pin hole in the press a short distance for a reducing bushing then made a punch with a large head that rides on the cross pin, but the pin itself is small enough for the ejection of the bullet. The core is seated open end up and bullet is formed point down in the dies.

I looked, but can't find pictures of the dies and punches.
