Dillon 1050/1100 Short Trim Toolhead

Since Dillon seems to be out of these and have been for awhile, does anyone know of a good aftermarket manufacturer of 1050/1100 toolheads in general, but more specifically the short time one?

That's not good since Dillon is sole source for any part for their presses. If they have none, their distributors will not have that same part. But have your tried places like Brian Enos forum ? He has a small forum with buy sell. Maybe you could pick up one there. Since he was a distributor for Dillon, the forum is Dillon focused. Good get lucky but you may have to join to post something there.

Enos has some normal toolheads, but so does Dillon. Can’t find the short trim dies anywhere- Enos, Double Alpha, Bobcat Armament, or direct from Dillon. Things are unicorns teeth

They are selling their new presses like hotcakes they will get them back some time. If you need one now hire a machine shop to cut one down for you. I cut mine down when I needed one, ask Dillon for specs.

That’s a good point.
Need is pretty subjective, I can wait to avoid the associated costs of machining one down
