Bill,

I sold you my 6 pt, but I should still have my 8 pt if you’re interested.

I said that I had 2 BPI brass crimpers, a large and a small, both 6 point. 20 bucks plus postage and they're yours

I bought them for starting crimps on new and used 16 gauge hulls (trimmed & skived) but frankly they did not work that well for me. Perhaps there is a trick to setting them up I'm not familiar with, but I found I get good enough crimps with the MEC plastic one.
