Smokeless Jim,

Look at this link to see the choices of the Lee Loader  calibers.  It doesn't appear they currently make the one you want.  Next time I'm at my old time gun store, I'll look for you -- they have to blow the dust off most things to find the price.  If your caliber was ever made, they might have it.

See the link if you have not already done so.

In the absence of factual information, the voids will be filled with the worst possible scenario!

My first attempt at reloading was in the 1960's with .32 spl Lee Loader for my Winchester 94.  They would only work one time.  If I reloaded twice, the cartridge wouldn't fit the chamber.  About 10 years later, I tried again with my .308 BLR.  Same thing.  I gave up attempting to reload.  I was told much later that the Lee Loader only neck sizes the case and neck sizing doesn't work in lever action rifles.  It wasn't until the mid 1990's that I tried reloading again, this time with a regular press and have been reloading ever since.  If I had used a regular press from the beginning, I would have been reloading for 40 years rather than just the last 10 years.

Looks like I will get new Rcbs dies for my Win 94.I was going to bid on a set from ebay,but I''ll buy them new. This lever gun sure can shoot! SN# tells me it was made in the 1930's .  Smokeless Jim Greene Co,Pa
