I recently purchased a bunch of reloading equipment at an estate sale that included a Vickerman bullet seater. It included seaters for several calibers that I shoot. I have tried for my 270 and I love it. Has anyone ever heard of this company or if they are still in business? I would like to find out more about this company if possible. Thanx.

These folks are making them now.

The professional reloader who got me started 35 years ago used them.

Bye

Jack,

Thanks for the update information, I changed my index.

I saw this information on another site and thought that I should post it just for another source. He has Vickerman style dies available for $55.00 including shipping.

That's all I have but I suspect that if you sent him an e-mail that you could get the rest of the information.

Best.

Thanks for the information guys. Sorry it took so long to reply, I haven't been online in awhile. These are the slickest seaters to work with. I keep it set up on a partner press next to my R.C. Thanks again.

The current RCBS Competition seater has the Vickeman window feature plus a micrometer head for fine adjustment of the seating depth.
