I have some to sell. PM sent.

[Pavogrande]

the 310 shop -- In Texas I think -- not cheap, but he has a peck of them -
I have a few, what are you looking for?

[Green Frog]

I've got some too. I'd be willing to sell or trade for some of the stuff I need. What caliber(s) are you looking for?

Still searching for a reasonably priced .45 Colt set for the TrueLine. Don't need the whole 310 set. I'm patient and will probably have to wait until the current craziness is over.

I have a set for the .45 colt. What do you think is reasonable $$?

Wayne,

The only critical die for you is the FL sizer/decapper die. That was unique to the TL Jr set. The mouth belling and seating dies should be the same. Or had you figured that out already? I have built several "multipurpose" sets by finding orphan FL dies in pistol calibers and adding them to 310 Tool die sets. I think all I have for the 45 Colt is the 310 set, though. :-?

Yeah, the seat/crimp die is the one I need. I'm loading 45 S&W and my full size 45Colt dies don't crimp. Hasn't been a problem yet, but I'd like to get a crimp in there without buying a full set of RCBS Cowboy 45 S&W dies.

Shooter, it all depends on condition and completeness. I've seen 310 dies that are essentially new and ones that are missing internals, missing lock rings, rusty, etc. I would want the seat crimp die at least. The others are nice to have a set. New a set is something like $69 from Lyman, who still make them.

PM me with more information.

You can find the 310 shop on Castpics under references, then Lyman 310 tools, The Reference Section. The fellow's name is Rick Morrill and he is a great guy to deal with. What he doesn't have, he makes.

With the number of folks looking to trade 310 tooling maybe there should be some sort of clearing house for them.

Works for me!!! I'm putting together a set to load 38-357. Got the FL size/decapper. bullet seaters for the two cast bullets I'm loading but no expander or crimper.

[Rafe Covington]

See my comment in Post #8. You need a muzzle resized if you're going to use it with a tong tool. Fortunately, 38/357 dies are very common.
