    I'd love to find someone who has a bunch of old 6 sided nuts wanting to trade for the new splines ones.

    RedLegEd got the ones I had for now, but I expect I'll be getting more in the future.

    Yeah, have a look, but ignore the price.

    These men and their hypnotized followers call this a new order. It is not new. It is not order.

    The wrench that mac60 pictured in his post is what I've been using on the new Lee rings. Dug it out of a tool box where I keep things that I don't have a need for at the time, but can't bear to get rid of. The wrench works very well.

    With respect, in my experience the leverage available with the spline tool as designed is more than sufficient. YMMV, however.
