L.E. Wilson customer service

Just contacted L.E. Wilson about one of their 6ppc chamber seater dies that I bought new from them 12 years ago. At that time I was using a .262" chamber neck, but recently re-chambered 2 barrels to the .272" necks. needless to say when I attempted to seat the bullet, the case would not fully enter the seating chamber. Duh!! Thought the die would be useless to me, or it would be very pricey for them to modify it for the larger neck dia., and briefly offered it for sale on this site. A quick phone call confirmed that they will modify the seater body, and if I send them 2 as sized Lapua cases, they will make sure the interior dimensions of the die are compatible, and will also verify the stem seating depth. Asked for an approx. cost, and was told, "just return shipping". Now that is real "customer service", from a really great company. :)
 
I agree, they are terrific. They made me a trimmer case holder for a 9.3x74 in a day. Now if I can just get them to make a three-way cutter for the trimmer!
 
I agree that Wilson's service is great, FD, but why didn't you just re-chamber your die with your new reamer?
 
Joe: I don't have the capability to do that type of machining work, and could not expect my 'smith to do it for Wilson's work, free of charge. With the 2 Lapua cases sized the way I make 'em Dan assured me they will review all the interior dimensions and make any corrections necessary, almost like getting a custom die, I guess.
