    Lyman Tru-Lline press ?

    Just wondering if they ever made one with the Large 310 die holes as would be used for the 50-70 for instance. Or adapter bushing for the standard 7/8x14 thread of modern presses. For those who don't know, the 310 dies actually have two sizes. The larger is for 50-70, 348 Winchester, things of that size.
    thanks all

    We talked about this at length in Vintage Reloading Tools and/or the ARTCA Forum which, unfortunately seems to have been down for the last couple of weeks. The point is, there was such a beast, but it’s about as often seen as Sasquatch.

    And just to set the record straight, there was also a smaller diameter Ideal die used for a couple of small diameter cases like the 25-20 SS. AFAIK, they were only used in some of the early tong tools and were all long gone when the TL Jr was developed, so no extra small hole presses.
