Well I bought an old press that came with some 303 dies from a buddies dad for 40$. thought "meh" can't go wrong at that price. Dies look awesome and about an hour with some lube and steel wool the old press is smooth again. Now comes my problem. The only shell holder he had is the lyman "J" 17 which isn't even for the 303 dies... maybe why buddies dad packed it away on a shelf 25 years ago... any way my question is does any one know where I can get a

Type J to Type X shell holder adapter? This way I can use new shell holders.

I can't seem to find one in Ontario... and Amazon (who I hate) has them listed at like $80 .... nope. Lymans site shows as out of stock and an old stock item as well.

Any help is very much appreciated. I am new at reloading and just trying to get an old beauty of a press running again to learn on.
 
EBAY. Have you tried to call Lyman? They might have an updated ram.
Buddy of mine did that to an old ECHO press. Called RCBS and they sent him a replacement, modern ram
 
Thanks gents. Lyman was well not easy to get on the phone. Ebay sucks... but I found x reload inc online and they were awesome. Had one in stock for decent price and shipped super fast.
