Re: Ideal #3 special
I spend most of my time with old single shots. I have several of the old tong tools. They work quite well. Do you have the screw-in bullet seating and decapping dies that came with the handle? Looks as if the push rod for sizing cast bullets is missing.

Hi Waterman. Very long time no see!!!
Re: Ideal #3 special
How did I get to be Waterman again? I was once Waterman but could not log on until I became Reincarnated. But my wife hired some computer guru to fix her e-mail from a remote location, and suddenly I am waterman again. :-X

Not sure if the no. 3 special is still available, but the 30.06 set works on 30/40 and does a passable job. Adjustment of the dies is the only change needed. I think the 30.06 are still available, if not will probably they be easier to find for sale as used.
