I had this custom made swaging die made up by an area machinest that has always been pretty good in the past...but he didn't come through this last time.
The special size swaging die was supposed to be .433 diameter with 3 rising stems. It turned out to be .437, which is not reloadable unless I run it through a special sizing die.
Machinest says he can't make a hole that size in the bolt as the through hole is too long. If he tries to ream it out the tool bit will wobble and go oversize.
So, I got me a .437 diameter swaging die that isn't doing me any good.
Going to get back with the guy after thanksgiving and see if he can do something
about it.
I wanted this .433 dia. swaging die to be able to bump-up smaller .44 caliber cast bullets to that size.
