    What is this?

    Something I picked up as part of a deceased estate, two lyman presses that do something. Looks like they are perhaps for forming projectiles, maybe pushing jackets onto projectiles. Can anyone explain what they are? Name:  IMG_20191219_185956.jpg

    So it applies lube to cast bullets? Forgive my ignorance

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Sorry for the lack of contact, been a bit chaotic with one thing and another. Here's a photo of all the bits, the sizing dies are all H&I, whatever that means, and there are 277,325, 225, 313, 258, 244, 358, and 309 diameter, as well as a top punch, and gas check seater. I don't know what any of these are, so I'm just assuming the labels are correct. @Tommy and @40mm are you guys still keen? Which bits are you wanting and how much would you offer?
    Cheers, Tom
