    TL;DR I'm not talking about die 'rings', but *ring dies*. Entirely different thing, very much a specialty item.

    Anyone know where a body could find a ring die these days?

    I've got one for 308 sized case heads; looking to pick up some for others sizes as well. The person on another forum who uses to make them went radio silent a few years ago. I thought there was a manufacturer on here that *might* be making them, but it sounded like that didn't pan out.
     
    The PVA one didnt work out so well for me, the .473 base resizer was taking my brass down to .462 or something that was entirely too small instead of .470

    Though I do have a lathe with a chuck now, Maybe Ill wallow it out a bit...

    I think the 'custom' one I have takes them down to 0.468" which is about right.

    Pretty sure the PVA die was the other one I was thinking of; had a chance to get one from him but that fell thru (my fault). I don't see them listed anymore...?

    Can we expect to see some of these dies & bushings available again?
