Neal Waltz 22Lr Die set

[Nemesis1264]

Anyone on here have one of his die sets for 22Lr?

I would like to have one for myself.
Please PM me if you do and or if you might consider selling it.
Maybe I can get it duplicated. Not sure.

Thanks.

Just got off Rimfire Central, Mr Waltz retired and the company is being ran by someone else. The dies are in production. I'll try and find the post and either PM you or post it here.

Look forward to the link. Was always intrigued by the idea. I am going to buy one to play with. The 36 grain HV Winchester X-Pert wacks gophers great but accuracy is a little less than spectacular. If I can make SK Plus, which is way more accurate, wack gophers near as hard as the Wichester that will be truly great gopher ammo.

I do, and they're a hoot. I also have two of the various Paco Kelly tools and they too are fun. Don't forget the L'il Gizzy. Countless truckloads of money are spent on centerfire stuff to improve accuracy. One of these things CAN improve accuracy and changes the way a bullet kills. The FWOP you hear when one hits a crow or squirrel makes me giggle every time.

Tag in! I too am interested. I've been doing this freehand, which doesn't always work unless great care is taken. Sometimes it just doesn't work out and a die would definitely make this even more consistent!

I know I didn't pay THAT.

They have gone up, but not unreasonable. Paco Kelly's tool set is in the same price range.

This pricing is a few years old, my bet is, it has gone up too.

The Phase III tool costs $65.00, while the Phase IV tool costs $75.00. The Maxi 3 which does three (3) rounds at once, costs $100.00, and the four-round Maxi 4 is $128.00. All tools can be customized for target rifles or European chambers. To order, contact Paco Kelly, P.O. Box 1170, Cortaro, AZ 85652 or use this ORDER FORM.

Last time I tried to contact Paco (two years ago?) I sent him an actual letter and received no response. John Taffin indicated that he was not in the best of health. I am aware that the order form is still up but I'm not sure if he's still selling or producing but thank you for the information sir. If a person likes shooting small game with a 22, any of these tools make it mo' bettuh.

I think Greg Wally used to be the head gunsmith at Kelby IIRC. Good guy.....if it's the same one.

You don't. You reprofile loaded rounds.
