	are any of you guys using a dillon 550 for reloading 40-70 ss? I have 150 new 405 winchester brass that I am trimming down for 40-70 ss brass. I have a #24 rcbs shell holder for the 405 brass in my rock chucker press but would like to be able to use my dillon press. But I cannot find a shell plate for the dillon press. only option I see is a #P plate as used for 30-40 craig and 303 british. any other suggestions ??

	A P plate should work fine. If you have a 44 mag plate try it. LD1

	Unless the Dillon .44 Mag plate is oversized it wont accept .405 brass.
