casts_by_fly Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 for what brand dies? When I broke a pin in my hornet, Redding shipped me 2 or 3 from the US FOC. I think Midway UK sell them also. rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kent Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 hornet flash holes can be a bit tight on the pin. I took a skim off mine and now do them by hand with a small punch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rem708 Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 The pin is 1.56mm in diameter and 23mm long. You could use the shank end of a metal drill. Ideally you want to get a 1/16 imperial but I have checked a 1.5mm and it does work but is loose in the holder. This could be held in with a bit of tacky glue. Just grind off the cutting spiral. You can get three from evilbay for 99p plus £1 postage http://tinyurl.com/qfgoqls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
