Thanks for the kind and knowledgeable replies.

Looks like to me I might "need" a 45acp Square Deal. I looked over the fence at the Lee offerings as well. Several friends have the Lee models and think they are ok for their needs. Over the years, RCBS served me well in their single stage for pistol and rifle, and Dillion got me into progressives for pistol cases; no complaints. My old Lee autoprimes wore out years ago, but I fixed them with some help off the internet and a 45acp case. Reloading has been good times, sure has.

I was not aware that the square deal dies were not available in 30 Luger, these dies are smaller I guess to fit in the smaller head of the square deal. Guess I could fabricate the dies, but getting older, just leave the Dillon 450's alone and buy a new 45acp square deal.

Hard to imagine that the days of 3 dollar a box 9mm's with jacketed Winchester bullets has come and gone for me sorta speak. I see bullets have gone up some since I bought 9mm bullets last, guess tis time to get into the modern age huh?...........
