[QUOTE="ORCON, post: 1894142, member: 101154"] You could hone it out yourself using a drill press or hand drill with no wobble. Find an appropriately sized arbor and some wet/dry sandpaper and wrap it up til it just barely fits the neck portion of the die. Start with 400 grit and use honing oil. Follow up with 800, 1000, 1200 grit. Periodically check the progress by sizing a neck and measuring it. Go slow, check often. Shouldn't take more than an hour of your time. [/QUOTE]
