Bonanza die parts

I have a Bonanza sizer die for .225 Winchester missing the internal decapper components.  Is there any source for the parts?
Thanks

What is the thread on the Bonanza? If it's the same as RCBS, CH or Lyman, you'll be able to use one of thoughs. Or get a Lyman expander and decapping pin and have the rod threaded to fit them.

The don't catalog them but Forester has parts for Bonanza powder measures if you call. Might have die parts too.

Bottle necked Fixed cartridges I use a universal decaper most of the time, have the expander and decaping rod removed from the sizing die.  Lube the case, size, then tumble, then decap which cleans out any media from the primer pocket. Then I expand and flare with a Lyman M die even if using jackated bullets. 

Works the brass less and long run is easier for me.
