Arsenal Krag Sizing Die

Post by Cat Man »

While scrounging estate sales for the usual reloading components, I picked this out of a miscellaneous junk box. Well actually I had to buy the whole box of stuff to get this nugget.

At this rate, with this 30-40 resizing die and two other tools from the arsenal reloading outfit now in my collection, I should have the whole set by about year 2052.

As the older collectors pass on, hoarded dusty collections long stored under someone's reloading bench from "the good old days" become available again. Keep hunting.

Would you please show us photos of the ends of the die? It's clearly a "pound" die or one meant to be used in conjunction with a vice, to force the fired & deprimed & lubricated (?) case into the die. With maybe a hole in the other end for admitting something to push the case back out.
