I'm looking for a company that will properly harden a FL die made with my resize reamer in a reasonable time frame. Cost is less of a concern as I can't see it ranging too widely. Please at least one name. Thank you thank you!

You can call PAULO PRODUCTS 5711 West Park Av., St. Louis MISSOURI 63110. 314-647-7500. They do hardening there. I had a Die Body done there. Cost is about $65.00

There is a place in Pa somewhere that will Hard Chrome the inside of dies for not a lot of money I have read here in the past. The Hard Chrome seems a better situation to me.
 
Usually, the cost is to fire up the furnace. The cost for hardening one die is about the same as for hardening 10. Find someone to batch your die with.

Or for a single die, consider one of the surface finishing treatments. There has been a lot of positive feedback on that. You could search / ask in the Gunsmith forum for that.
