Good call on the 375 SM dies.
I set up a 'watched search' on ebay and a 3-die set turned up the very next day! And at a very good price.
How lucky can you get. As long as I'm on a roll I've setup searches for brass too.
Now all I have to do is get a file trim die probably from CH4D.
Thanks again,

I saw your tutorial on trimming 375 Win. to make 375 SuperMag. Thanks for the link.
I have used a Tubing cutter to cut a couple of 30-30 cases after fire-forming.
(My method for fire forming is using 12 gr. of W-231 (which I have). Tamp in place with a bit of AWP on top, fill the rest of the case with cream of wheat, to the rim-or nearly so. The I seal the COW with a drop or three of melted candle wax. It works for me.)
I'm concerned the Tubing cutter method may not be accurate enough by itself and I don't have the cool case trimmer. So I thought I'd get the file trim die that CH4D makes.
I take it your case trimmer can be adjusted for whatever length you want. I do have a Lee case trimmer for 375 Winchester. Maybe I can modify it to trim the 375 SuperMag.
Thanks again,

OfflineA note about Reeds; About four years ago I ordered some 445 SM ammo from them, it was back ordered at the time and I forgot about it. Â Fast forward to this Jan, 2016, I got an email asking if I STILL wanted the 445 ammo I ordered in 2012! Â I replied that I wouldn't be needing any, thanks. Â Not that this was a typical experience but I thought I'd share it. Â IMO if you are in a hurry, buy the brass and dies and load your own, it'll be faster. Â You may want to call them and ask if they have 375 on hand and how long it will take to receive your order. Â
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.
