??-Can you I.D.

[SWANEEDB]

Have had these sizing dies for some time and never knew what they were until a couple days ago, now I know. Talked to 'Pressman' Ken and told him what I had, here's the pic's Ken. Now can the other pros I. D. and a little history of them. I'll see what feedback comes in and then in a few days I'll clue you in what I have. Dies are 38 & 44-40.

They are B&M bullet sizer dies. Mounting base is secured on bench over a hole then the sized bullets are collected in a box as they are tapped thru the die. [ref 1954 B&M handbook, pg 68]

Well shoot, that was quick. I found the info in a 1941 shooters bible.

Well Dave I guess it just was not your day to have a great time. Cold, wet and windy outside. Give Gus a scratch behind the ears for me.
