Features and Specifications of the ZERO M-Series Sizing Die 

Love what Area 419 is doing. Please don't stop perfecting reloading.

It has all the functionality we’ve been expecting. But this requiring new turret, new shell holder, and considering multiple SAC dies already invested, it’s really hard to swallow this at $500ish price tag.

Every time I hear of a new product you have that I think I don’t need, I watch your video and I’m immediately sold. Nice job on explanation. Just need to wait for 6BR.

RCBS, HORNADY, & LEE can all do basically the same job. For 20% the cost, and sticking to established mounting standards. A Redding Neck Sizer, with solid sleeves, can do the same job, for less money.

Reloading has come a long way since I started in 1983 ,the bad thing is that the dies wear out,I still remember the price I paid for my Hornady 7 mm Remington dies at $ 14 .99 .

Just order one! just waiting now!

Man I love your stuff, and I spend a lot on reloading, but $650 to get in on this with the Zero I have... man...

You guys always take it to the next level. I guess I'm going to need to save some money and get one.

I think for the market you are making them for you will sell every one of them. I feel you hit a home run with these dies.

Since Alpha is making 25 Creedmoor brass now do you guys have that on your radar? Your innovations are awesome and appreciated! Very happy with all of the products I’ve purchased over the years.

Daaaang!! So sweet! If I didn’t just drop $325 on a SAC 6GT die I’d be down 😢

As someone who has worked as a gunsmith the first question that comes to my mind is What chamber specs are you sizing them for? You can have the most perfectly made, perfectly consistent dies, but if they are sizing the brass to something different from what my chamber was cut for, then the quality of your product is irrelevant regardless of price. I would suggest a couple of things. 1. Please release the specs of the 'sizing reamer' that you cut the dies with. So I don't have to reverse engineer the specs of your sizing reamer by cerrosafe casting your sizing die, and then have a custom chambering reamer cut. 2. In addition to the specs of your sizing reamer, make avaialble a chambering reamer that matches your sizing dies. A no turn neck chambering reamer with removeable pilot & has oil grooves cut in it pilot as well. That would cover about 80% of what customers actually need. Or just have your recommened chamber reamer print on file with JGS & Manson, so we can order them ourselves. I know there is a huge variaton in how people want their chambers cut, but at least having the sizing reamer spec used to cut the sizing die, we can then order the chamber reamer how we want. 3. or like you suggested in the video, have blanks available so we can cut our own sizing die easily. While this is not my preffered approach, since it involves more machine time and ordering both a sizing reamer & a chambering reamer.

Do you have any comparison data illustrating the benefits of this die system versus another premium die system (like a Redding Elite type S or something). Detail and data oriented handloders might better digest the higher price with that proof and an example of the dies modularity for multiple calibers. I know i would. Great concept!

What about old standby 270 , 300 blk , 30- 06 , etc

So it seems this die is made to, decap, size and mandrel all in one stroke? Typically I decap then clean, anneal then size, then mandrel…. Also what lube did you test and find you like best with these dies?

You guys need to do a video of just the rifles you boys got hanging.. beautiful shit up there

338 lapua magnum dies..

Are these modular, in that I can just change the sleeve and use the same die. In other words 1 die body 3 different sleeves (6br, 6 dasher, 6.5 Creed)?

Please add the 28 Nosler as a option for your dies!

If I understand correctly it will only work in rock chucker and zero press? Amazing die!

I have a ZERO press with a 7/8 head are you telling me I have buy a 1-1/4 head to use this die and throw out my Lapua brass?

How many thousandth of play is there between the die and the centre

Presently had built a 6mm/280AI chanber. I purchase the reamer. I am presently using Redding bushing dies in 280AI FL Taking 4 steps to reduce the neck. I have your press and tourists. Either size for dies. Presently have a blank being reamed for bullet setting. So I am interested. Keep me updated. Thanks

This is the same die design I have been thinking of for years! Great job on the design. Just don't understand why a single die and shell holder is $500? Maybe if it came with a nice bullet seater or if the sizing mandrel was solid carbide...... But give you all prop's for thinking outside the box!

If I don’t use Alpha brass, how does this non-bushing sizer “adjust” to the variability of slightly different neck wall thickness in the brass necks (Lapua, Hornady, Peterson, Norma), without unnecessarily over working the neck when you pull the mandrel back through the neck to set the .002” of neck tension? Or am I simply overthinking this and it’s not an issue?

I am a Zero press owner & a competition F-open shooter when will you be offering this in 284 Win. I like the concept of your new die

300 PRC or 7 PRC on the short list at all? Surprised to see the 308 in the coming soon over some other options....don't exactly think of that as the precision 30 cal round this die appeals to.

$500? Ouch. Does this die and shell-holder now eradicate the investment made in the Zero Shell Holders?

Hope you make one for 30-06. PLEASE!

7 SAUM please

Will this die system work on a Forster Co-ax. With out the shell holder???

Do i need the whole die or can i buy a collar and mandrel for different calibers, you guys make the best products keep them coming Donald.

Pretty slick

Need a 6BR !

Seriously, I just bought SAC last week for 6GT. Little heads up man , little heads up.

Few more questions. 1. How to control neck tension through this sizing die? Is there any bushing? 2. Since the sleeve can be replaced, it that means we can use one die with different sleeves for multiple calibers with same body diameter such like 308win and 6.5 Creedmoor? 3. Any plan for long action calibers?

Can you guys make us wildcatters custom dies?

Hi 8.5x55 Blaser ??

6 BRA on the short list?

So the modular shell holder system for headspace that you sell will not be needed for this bad boy

Will they be compatible with the Forster Press?????

will you be making make dies for PRC’s

$450-650 for hard on hard contact?? I got a guy that will do that for $20.

6mm ARC?

Bullet seater to complement the sizer ??

dear Santa...

People complaining about the price are the same guys driving a base model Chevy 1500 and bitching about the price of the GMC Denali, if you don't like it, then don't buy it. I am a ZERO owner and while this is super badass, I don't NEED it right now. Will I own one in the future, absolutely, but all of my bases are covered currently. I'll jump on one when 7prc comes about.

Not working with standard 7/8 press is like slapping us poor people in the face and saying screw you!

As much as I like Area419 this is just a bridge too far. With Warner Tool level cost and using 11/8" size dies you must be joking. Like you really think that reloaders who already have a zero is going to pay through the ass for a new toolhead, die shellholder just to use this die? I mean I would much rather pay for Short Action Custom or Bullet Central Micron dies and custom shell holder set instead of paying more than half the cost of the zero press. Just unrealistic.

How about if you have a custom reamer and i send it to you and make the sleeve out of that reamer. Is it possible?
