Has any one used the tool head that a mr Williams is selling that can be used with both 357 and 38 by switching a shim on the tool head?

How is the quality? Everything line up? Does it work or do you still have to adjust the dies?

If all the brass is trimmed to the same length per spec for 38 & 357 and you are useing the same bullet with the same crimp it should work pretty well . It may need a little fine tuning though ?
i bought a used set of 38 special dies and swap them out with the 357 dies and bought a seperate tool head for the 38 at a later date .

I agree with bobthenailer... A spare toolhead is pretty cheap compared to the special toolhead with the shim... especially if you have the extra dies.
