IT took me 25 yrs but I got my Christmas gift
it was a complete set of Lyman AA 20ga dies. Most of you don't know what they are but to the few you know how rare

Wow! Aren't they the 1.5" diameter? Do you have a press they will fit?

Congrats on your Christmas gift!

The dies are 1 inch with fine threads. They actually measure out at 1.1inhes.

Here is a comparison with a 1.5 inch die.

I was fortunate enough to get a set of 20 and 16 gauge. I paid dearly for them. There were quite a few bidders.

Wish I hadn't sold off my 16 & 20 gauge die sets so cheaply 10 years ago... "Ve grow too soon oldt undo too soon schmardt!" :(

The 16 ga set came with and the 20 ga set was bought for my All American with one large hole.
