Outstanding thinking,
What no photo's, using NOE's size dies?
You keep pushing that 20 caliber and I might break down and make one,
the only headache is the magazine, don't know which size to convert over, 17 or 22 caliber.....etc.
Wouldn't a 4 gun battery, all the same brand/make, one each of the calibers, 17,20,22,25,
sitting there, just grab and go, I have been thinking about the which make/brand to use ............,
Co2 and HPA conversions for each etc..........
Then add on a PP 700 pistols for each caliber, just like the Old Winchesters used to be in 25-20, 32-20,
38-40 or 44-40 and the Old standby 45 Colt calibers, would be the best collection possible, for anyone.
Thinking real hard.....................
Thanks,
Don

.22 cal HADES on LEFT and RESIZED to .20 cal HADES on RIGHT. Skirts fold down and blend in nicely with head getting a nice thin support band at head. .22 to .20 with soft lead works GREAT !

Hi All,
Is a product like this commercially available or is it a one-off creation? I'm interested in knowing the cost of the die - lets assume I could use a commercially available press like an RCBS/Hornaday single to do the pressing. Are there spec's I could use to have a local machine shop make one?
Long story short, a .20 came into my possession - my volume of shooting depends directly on availability. A die set would greatly increase avaiability.
Thank you for looking

Total custom .... Never seen any commercial interest is such a resize die.

It's interesting that pellets of different weights all shot the same group size. maybe the aerodynamics counts more?
