    Need a custom push-through sizing die

    Hi folks. I've had good luck before getting help here in doing my small semi-sane projects.

    I'm in need of a Lee-style push-through sizing die and ram/plunger in .729. Lee doesn't go that big. I'm not sure Lee goes custom at all anymore. Their custom page for this gets a 404 error.

    I tripped over a YouTube video where the guy was making .729 push-through dies and rams using a 7/8-14 stainless bolts. Failing that, I guess you could use a 1-1/4-12, and I could remove the insert in my press.

    Anyone here interested in making one of these for me? Or perhaps, put me on to someone who would be? I know to many of you this is child's play but I have neither the equipment nor the skill to use it, to make one.

    Might give Ammohead a try . I think it's more of a retirement hobby thing for him but asking doesn't cost anything .

    Lathesmith (on this forum) makes them. His prices are reasonable and his quality is outstanding.
