I am interested in you notching punch that forms the saber tooth or XTP folds please explain how this works will it work on any caliber or are they caliber specific. In other words if I bought one for .452 would it work for smaller bullets?

Brian,
PM sent.

Is BT Sniper still accepting orders for the complete kit? Haven't heard anything back from him; however if anyone knows that he's super busy, I will sit patiently.
Yep! Got a few phone calls to get to. Also a couple PMs. If you haven't already send me a PM and I'll get back to it as soon as I can.
Thanks
BT
I spent over an hour on the phone with BT Sniper the other night. His parting words were, "I gotta get back to making dies!" (meaning, he had to get off the phone)
He's a good guy, and very conscientious. If he "promptly" answered every PM and phone call, he'd be worse shape (delivery wise) than the Corbins. Brian needs a secretary to answer the phone and PM's.
Gentlemen,
I have come across an error in the page order of my 22 cal die set instruction manual. I should have caught this earlier, I'm sorry, my mistake, some of you may have already noticed. That's what I get for not checking the copy and print shop's work.
The correct page 3 of the 22 cal instruction manual that lists my 7 steps involved in making 22 cal bullets from 22lr brass is out of order in the manuals I have provided customers this year. Please check and make sure to take note of this. Hopefully it did not cause too much confusion. At the moment what should be page 3 is at located 4 pages from the back in-between the instruction for the Auto Eject system and the use of the 11 cavity core mold. This page needs to be positioned just before the "Further Explanation" page of your manual. Yes I will look into putting page numbers on the bottom of the pages to reduce the possibility of future potential issues :)
I'll make this change to all future manuals and check for other possible corrections that may be needed to keep you all up to date.
Thanks
Brian
Here is an update for the 22 cal die progress I made over the weekend....
The following dies are ready to be shipped and will go out just as soon as I get them boxed up. Should have them shipped this week.
8 point form dies (got several more just needs to pass QC checks as well as a few 9s dies for those on order)
24 core seat dies
6 core swage dies (I think I am a little short on core swage dies. I will have more machined very soon.)
30 derim dies are in transit to me back from Nitride processing. I expect them possibly by end of this week or certainly first of next week.
Thanks for all your patience. I'm hoping to make it a great holiday for many :)
Good shooting and swage on!
Brian
Hmm - 8 point form dies & 24 core seat dies... [runs to check BTs worklist thread...] YES! YES!
It looks like I'll be running to the mailbox every day after work now.

What a pretty sight! Making progress!
BT
I predict smiles.
I just sharted a little! Been waiting some time to see this. They look great Brian. Will these be shipped out shortly?
I'll be shipping as much as I can as soon as I can. I expect the derim dies back from nitride soon too. Progress is slow but results are looking very good.
BT
6 orders completed and shipped today! They should all arrive on Thursday. Review the instruction manuals. Good shooting and swage on!
BT
Sounds like 6 Christmas presents with more on the way. I am sure you will all be happy with the dies.
