Lyman had one in their line up as reently as two years ago. Try www.buffaloarms.com (http://www.buffaloarms.com). They have goodies like this when others don't.

You can find Lyman's up to .459" and member Buckshot here makes them up to .460"... .461"..., new and modified I believe, what ever you want inches if they are just possible to make. I have newly made .460" and .461" and they are what promised, exactly. Recommended.

Lyman makes .457" -> .459", but Buckshot can open one up to .460" for you.

Lyman sizing dies GENERALLY run half a thou larger than nominal in my standard alloy, recent WW + 2% tin. However, as Forest Gump's mother said, "you never know what you're going to get." I have a Lyman.357 die that sizes exactly .357. Wanting a .356 die I bought one and got .357.

Buckshot does great work. I have several tools of his making and treasure them all.

I had Stillwell open up a surpus .452 die to .460. However his web site (www.sizingdie.com) apprear to be down and has been for a couple of months. I wonder if he died or has had health crisis of some kind. Anybody know?
