    I’ve got a Dillon for 45ACP. Could you turn that one down to .430?

    I just measured a 45 ACP funnel for a Dillon I have. It's about 0.285-290 inside diameter, so I think you could turn it down. The one I have looks chromed (I'm pretty sure it's not just polished). That would be easiest for someone to turn down to start from something already made. The 45 ACP one I have has a bulged at the end, and then its reduced up to the flare portion. You would also want the powder funnel to be long enough to go down in the brass for the bullet you are using.
