It's the little things that bug me the most. Bought these bulk from Midway a while back. Just got to this one today. I spent about a minute trying to install the dieDon't have the reciept either, and is hardly worth the postage to return it.

Send them a pic and ask them to include return shipping with replacement , you might be surprised
If you have an account with Midway, just look up your order histry on the web site. You do not need the reciept. I would also call Hornady. They will replace that without any questions. I have broke parts and they sent new ones no charge. I tried to pay but they would not let me. Call Hornady and let them know about this, and let us know what they say.
Just got off the phone with Midway. They did not have any in the singles so they are sending me a three pack...GRATIS !! How's that for customer service? Should have them by Tuesday.

See, don't get upset until you have talked to the retailer and the manufacturer.
I expect these sorts of things with CAD/CAM and the ability of people to pick up from one bin and drop in another bin.
Anyone need an .82 caliber push thru sizing die? They did not even want it back, or ask for proof. It pays to have a long customer account record I guess.

I have had similar experiences with midway, they always have tried to make things right for me.

????
Every now and then, I used to find threaded(or supposed to be!) pipe fittings like that.
Wallenba, I sent you a pm. Think I can help you out so that you can still use that bushing...
Send a picture to the manufacture, maybe they will send you some.
Can't you just file off the threads on the die? Should fit pretty well then.

I meant, run a reloading die (sizing die) into it.
Yep, mebbe only thirty seconds before I looked to see what the h311 was wrong. It was a morning pre-coffee event.

Run a die into it. Now, who has a 7/8 - 14 die in stock?
CHANGE: OOPS! I meant TAP, run a tap into it. Too late at night, I guess!

If it was easy, anybody could do it.
Bill, I got an offer from Daywalker to use one. But I think it's more trouble than it's worth. I'm gonna keep it as a reminder to check my stuff when it arrives. P.S I knew you meant tap.
