[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 879621, member: 25383"] One thing you might want to consider for the 40 S&W is a roll sizer. Their chambers are not round, but actually eliptical. Most dies don't get the case exactly round, and they will hang up going into the chamber. I see them every now and then on Ebay. It maybe also be able to size the 45acp as well, but can't say for sure. I like the old Lyman "M" series dies for cast bullets in the 44 mag and similar shaped rounds. I also see that your neck sizing a little bit. One of the most usefull tools I've ever bought is a set of small hole gauges. They also are handy when working onnthe rifle itself. Calipers are not really precise for precision measurments in bores. Also I'd recommend purchasing a one inch micrometer, and learn to use it. One of the cheapest aids you can get is a note book! Learn to keep a log book, and you'll save money and time. gary [/QUOTE]
