My neighbor gave me a RCBS case trimmer. He had 2 of them and only needed one so he gave it to me. The thing is it is missing one of the collets that holds the shells it is the #3 collet and it is missing 3 pilot bits that go in the cutter. I got lucky and the 22 caliber one is there so I can trim my 22-250 cases but I would like to buy the rest of the parts and make it whole again. The thing is I don't think RCBS makes this one anymore and I don't know if the parts for the new ones will fit this old one. Could someone advise me on this? Maybe give me a link to where to buy the parts. I can't find a model number on it so I took some pictures of it for you guys so you know witch one I have. I am glad he gave me this because I was going to buy a hand one by Lee and this has to be a step up for sure. It is old but still in very good condition. Thanks a bunch and take care Dale

I happen to have found a RCBS catalog that I forgot I ordered. I think the Collets and pilots have not changed. I think I can order current and it will fit mine. Dale
