Have an older Herter's press, was my Dad's. Decided to set it up to try hand loading .38 Special. I found a set of dies on e-bay, that well - they were cheap, that might work. What I don't think I have is the threaded case holder for .38. I believe it is the #6. I've seen some adapters, but they appear to be for the slotted type case holder and not the threaded ram type.
So, trying to source a #6 threaded case holder or adapter for the threaded ram to use other more common/modern case holders. Would prefer an original one, as I hear there are challenges with the primer function of the presses with the holder adapters, but not really sure - that's just internet info - so, some is good, some not so much.
Will add some pics and it may take a while, but follow this thread through to hopefully, actually taking some hand loads to the range.
