Today was my first time to read in this forum.
I noticed one fo the guys using a drill bushing.
In my past life I worked a lot with tooling. Thought I would provide some names of tooling suppliers with drill bushings, dowel pins etc.
There are a wide array of drill bushing types that might be useful in swaging bullets. I have never swaged bullets but I have used them to swage case heads down.
If you are a good shopper and know their product lines you can often cook book most of a design
which reduces the cost and time to get it working.

Reid Supply http://www.reidsupply.com/
Manhattan Supply aka MSC http://www.mscdirect.com/
Grainger http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/wwg/start.shtml

Then there are small parts suppliers that can supply shoulder bolts and dowel pins such as

Production Tool sells stuff I can use? I thought it was just a place to go drooling and wishing I'd taken some of the machinist classes in high school instead of just college track. I wasted the last year in high school taking only one required class. Who knew, then.
