is there a dealer in canada that sells gator checks?

Not that I know of. Some of us participate in the group buys on the castboolits forum. They are a good deal there. I did find some sizes have to be annealed before installing as the cup thickness is a bit thicker than Hornady/Lyman and they tended to spring back a bit after sizing. Not to the point of looseness but they were slightly large on the bullet without annealing.

I just received 10 thousand "gator checks" , in 7mm .30 and .35 . Personaly I like them better for fit etc. than Hornady/lyman . And for around 1/2 the cost even with shipping and exchange you cannot go wrong !

There is a guy on eBay that has them fairly often, try a search there.

Glad to know there's another manufacturer out there. Last summer was the last time I bought Honady and they were $38.00/1000 which is just NUTS for what they are. Thanks for the tip.
