I have talked to Alex and keen to pick his brain for options to get said dies.
It would be great if he made these as well.
I do have his annealler and wouldn't be with out.
Are you thinking annealer or press Zimmer?

Had the annealer since mid last year.
Alex AMP is only 25 minutes drive from me but I haven't been in for a chat with him since the end of last year.
Given the cost of his press I don't think I'll be going there. My style of shooting is no longer long range.
I have like @ebf the KnN arbor press with force gauge and are happy with what it tells me.

Alex's press is interesting to see the force differences with eg neck lubing. However, he seems happy to share these gems so I don't see the need to set up what is virtually a mini laboratory on my crowded reloading bench.

I did lust after 21st Century's hydraulic seating press for a while (not as flash harry as the AMP) but went off the boil given the cost.
To get one of those would probably cost similar to the AMP.

Where did Don get to with his 6.5X55AI project?
