Not sure about jacket draw dies, but Detsch will do the core swage, core seat & point form - if you have the Bling Detsch Custom Bullet Dies

U.P. North mentioned he would make a jacket draw if need when I asked yesterday:

I believe Lloyd will do an extrusion die so you can make your lead wire.....

A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country..."

The Detsch tools are the MOST expensive and the HIGHEST QUALITY dies available.
They are designed to swage factory jackets. They are NOT suitable for brass cases into bullets.
The guys who buy those dies are the "F-Class" long distance shooters, for whom money is no object in the pursuit of the big money shoots.
Detsch dies are not for plinking.

"F-Class" shooters shoot with $10,000 rifles, $5,000 scopes, and $3,000 rests........... Wayyyyyyyyyyy over my head..........

JUst wanted to put Detsch dies in some perspective.
