Groups & Pricing
Groups
Most manufacturers divide their dies into groups. This is an indication of the size of the dies as well as the cartridge, the cost to manufacture the dies, and the number of dies in a die set.
- Groups A through J are 7/8"-14 thread. Virtually all reloading presses today use this thread.
- Groups K and L are 1"-14 thread and must be used with an adapter bushing in a press having a removable bushing in the press head.
- Group M are 1 1/4"-12 thread which fits most larger "C" and "O" presses with the top bushing removed. This group is our entire shotgun line..
- Groups N and O are 1 1/4"-12 thread which fits most larger "C" and "O" presses with the top bushing removed.
- Groups P through U are 1 1/2"-12 thread which fit most 50 BMG loading presses.
- Groups V and W are 2"-12 thread and fit our Rock Crusher Press with a 2" top plate or bushing.
- Groups X and Y are 2 3/4"-12 thread and fit our Rock Crusher Press.
Shell Holders
- Groups A through L are for use with shell holders or shell plates having the industry standard depth of 0.125". (Except 1873 Maynard calibers)
- Groups M and N can use a variety of shell holder types.
- Groups O through Y are for use with threaded shell holders with a standard depth of 0.250".
Custom/Special Order Dies
Custom dies are available in any caliber. If you don't see your caliber listed or require special dimensions, you will need to supply a cartridge print, 2 fired cases, or a chamber cast. We will then assign a group price and inform you of any additional charges.
Availability
We have a large inventory of reloading dies, but we can't stock everything, especially the very obscure calibers.
Our current manufacturing time for popular dies is about 8 to 12 months. Low volume calibers and special orders are commonly running 24 months. Getting your friends involved to raise order volume for any given caliber will always enable us to make what you're looking for faster!
Pricing
Prices shown in the following table are for dies made to our standard dimensions. ANY deviation from standard dimensions is considered to be custom and therefore subject to special order pricing. Also, many calibers in our list are very rare and not commonly stocked, these calibers are considered to be special order.
The SPECIAL ORDER FEE for all calibers is 2 times the price of the die or set.
