    Same mfg for Berger, Barnes etc swage dies

    I had larger cal stuff ordered also but cancelled it due to the only available jacketmaker that can do jackets big enough falling off the face of the planet and not wanting to invest $20k to do it myself
    And of course the choice of material and the heat treatment is critical. They look good to me, ex USA?
    I've been doing some Mods to my reloading gear you can tweak it and it makes the operation just that much smoother
    Just loaded 30 rounds of 45/70 today and the are the best I done so far, bang them off tomorrow
