Hi Mark,
I have a set of Larrys dies in 17. I had them made for a Corbin CSP-S press.
The dies work very well and I have shot some of my best groups with them. That said I am no BR shooter but. .188" 4 shot group will do my hunting needs.
I did have to modify the punches slightly to fit the S press but it was length of the punches and not critical diameters that were the issue. Some time on the lathe fixed that.
My jackets are rimfire cases (as jackets are very expensive to import, ) and Larry made the punches to suit my needs.
All in all very happy with them.
