I've been waiting for the Xmas shipping mess to untagle before ordering a set of reloading dies from RCBS...But last night I noticed an RCBS 8mm Nambu die set on ebay...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/RCBS-8mm-Nam...-/141146069780

Here's the pic - Look at it closely...



I helped run the 25 bids up to $150...And lost...Because I knew RCBS sells them new for ~$163...But I wasn't sure of the configuration...

https://shop.rcbs.com/WebConnect/Mai...productId=2629

Here's the new RCBS die set...Notice the difference?...



So even though it may take 60 - 90 days for these 'special order' dies, I'm happy I lost the bidding war for the ebay dies...

(I'm working on a 'conversion' writeup for the 8mm Nambu now)...
