    Tom Crone Sizing Dies

    Just recieved a .533 sizing die I ordered from Tom Crone today. Nice die and bullet mics exactly .533 when sized. Order it July 3rd and got it on the 7th. Was told a next week but will settle for 4 days. Nice to get a die that sizes the size that the die is stamped. Good job Tom. Rich Foster, Dismal Swamp Rangers

    Crone Dies?

    So what type of die is this? Does it fit in a loading press, or is it for a luber-sizer? And can anyone give contact information for Tom Crone?

    Thanks-

    It is a push threw die. But if you have access to a lathe they can be thread 7x14 to use in a loading press.

    I talked to him at the Vet shoot. He will be making then with threads before long.
    I like the look of it and how clean it is. Really great looking die. Ask that he thread it then I will pick them up.

    Threaded Dies

    I think I will wait for the threaded version of the dies to become standard. They are lot easier to use in a loading press than a drill press.
