A caliber conversion kit so I can load 6.5 grendel on my Dillon. And a new Forster micrometer seating die for my grendel.

I was able to shop at our county surplus and picked up a Solo Rolling brief case to give to my son for his rolling range bag. They work great, don't have to carry anything to the tables, everything is in the case that rolls. Only 10 bucks used but in like new condition. He picked it up today.

Well nothing officially, but I did pick up some Tempilaq 750 and some Berry's Bullets 200 gr .308 for 300 BLK subsonics. They came in around Christmas time, so I'll count it! lol

Lighted magnifier to replace the swivel light I had in the middle of my rolling reloading station. The LEDs are brighter than the old bulb, and the magnifier is awesome for helping my middle aged eyes inspect for neck splits.

I got a similar lamp a year or so back. Absolutely love it.

Thanks for the post. I did try and remove the rust with Hoppes #9 on the base of the expander die - gets the "brown" out still has pitting, black marks, easy to see and feel with a finger nail.

Still waiting to hear back from the retailer. A $160 set of dies should not need "remedial" cleaning.

Just an update (referencing my posts #67 and #80 in this thread) - I returned the dies without issue (Natchez) they said they will replace the set. When they received my return they called me and said the other die set(s?) they had in stock had also exhibited rust. They contacted Redding and Redding sent me a new set. Arrived today - rust free.

Both Natchez and Redding get a big thumbs up from me!
