These are dies I haven’t seen before. Couldn’t resist. Got a whole box of these. This is a 22 hornet set.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200215/30225a66e9ac7855e6593006a215998a.jpg

I guess I should apologize for bothering to ask. Did not see anything on these.

Skunk1 you have nothing to apologize for, this old stuff can be a head scratcher at time. There is a post in the swaging forum where a guy has a pile of old dies, seaters, swaging dies and trying to sort out what he has. It soon becomes an interesting exercise in wild guessing.

Don't bother to apologize and they are fascinating articles.

After some research, I see my chances of owning one of these presses is like winning the lottery. Worse than buying a Hollywood. Looks like good auction material to get in the hands of someone who can use it. I like old stuff but not having the press kinda defeats the purpose of use or display.

They are out there, but you have to keep a really close eye on eBay.
The last one I got came from a collectors show in Denver, even then the guy who owned it didn't understand what it was.
