Very small thread on 270 dies, ?

[MightyThor]

I just acquired a Hollywood Jr press to add to my collection and it came with a set of Dies for 270 Winchester. The dies do not go with the press. They are very thin walled and have super fine threads. one die decapps, one neck sizes, one expands the neck and then the final die seats the bullet. I originally thought they might be for a Lee hand press but looks like they aren't. Anyone have a good guess. Can't put up photos till later.

Sound like Lyman 310 dies.

Yep, you nailed it. That is exactly what these are. I will be passing these on to someone else, anyone interested pm me.

I think the thread on them is 5/8-18, and they also work in the Lyman Truline Jr. IIRC they are neck sizing dies.

I believe Lyman still sells thread adapters to use these small dies in a 7/8-14 press.
