I just realized the bushing that reduces the threaded hole the dies fit in is 1 1/4 x 12 for the big 12 shotgun dies I was using. It needs to be 7/8 x 14 for regular dies. If I can't find it in the morning, I'll call RCBS tomorrow and get one. I'll PM you.

Afternoon BMC,
Are you getting your fishing tackle limbered up?. ....I am. I fround a situation I want to fix . I have and old Fenwick Ferralite flyrod that really needs to be refinished as it is really dull and pretty ugly. Have you ever refinished a fiberglass or graphite rod? If so whet did you use or suggest I use.
I have had the rod for at least 50 years. I also have a Pfleuger 1495 reel I've had since 1955. I use this setup on my pond for bass, crappie & bluegill.

I don't think I can help you very much in the refinishing department. But I believe that Fenwick is still making rods. Perhaps you could get some info from them. These were top of the line rods back in the day, and still are high quality stuff. I believe it was designed originally by Don Green, who later moved on to Sage. My fly fishing club hosted
a slide show and lecture by Mr. Green, years ago. It was about fly fishing for Atlantic Salmon in Eastern Canada. What a show.
That Pfleuger 1495 is an heirloom. I had one back in the day. Had the best braking system I have ever seen on a fly reel. Wish I still had it.
I no longer have contact with the club and all my buddies have passed on. So I am pretty much a dead end.
Let me know how it works out for you.

Well it really was an adventure. The 9 hours into camp was pretty tiring. I rode a really big mule, that was a great ride. I wasn't too sore the next day and used him for the next 6 days hunting and on the ride out too. It is beautiful country. Saw 9 wolves that screwed up a stalk on a nice bull and 4 grizzlies. They were really awsome (to use an overused term!), really got my old tick...
