no chance that you have the set of dies do you? I have an early SAS press and need a set of dies.

I don't have a set of dies for sale, but I have a set of 22 cal and the 22 rimfire jacket maker
that were the original purchase. Have since made 6mm and 30 cal on my shop equipment
nothing commerical .

are your dies the threaded type for the mightymite? How did you fair making the dies? send me a pm as I would like to talk to you about the dies you made.

The old SAS press I have is an early one that uses a dies that is not threaded but seats in ram with a set screw. Punch is held in the top of the press in a floating holder. PIctures of the rpess can be found down the page a bit.
