Belted Magnum Collet Resizing Die

Our popular
Belted Magnum Collet Resizing Die has been in stock for the last 6 months, and the price is the same as when they were first available (back in 2001). You can read about it on our website.
In two years I've sold over 1,000 of our collet dies through Cabela's and MidwayUSA alone. However, I've found that I can sell these dies directly from my website and make the same profit. I can also keep the price down. This way I can also drop the required million-dollar product liability insurance. (After all
. . . . this insurance gives lawyers much more motivation to go after someone.)
After helping shooters (one-on-one) for over 8 years, I've found that many of them assume that when their shellholder bumps their FL (or NK) sizing die - all is well. As you know, this is usually not the case, especially with belted magnum calibers. I've had numerous shooters send in fireformed and resized cases for troubleshooting. It became obvious that they also need to measure the chamber clearance (at the shoulder) so their handloads will fit in their particular chamber.
I found that most shooters are confused by the cartridge drawings in reloading manuals, and they have needless concern about locating the datum point on the shoulder. There's no need to think about all that if you just compare your handloads (at the shoulder) to one of your fireformed cases.
Our new
Digital Headspace Gauge does exactly that and simply displays your chamber clearance. That makes it easy to set your die height perfectly and bump the shoulder back -.001" to -.002" and
no more. Too many shooters are setting themselves up for headspace separation by not measuring this properly.
