Buying reloading dies in calibers for which you don't have firearms

[stryker]

I have dies in .308 Norma Mag.;6.5 Swedish Mauser;7.65 Carcano;.45-70,and a bunch of other calibers I'll probably never own rifles in (well, maybe I'd like to have a .45-70 someday). If nothing else, they make great trading material. I traded .264 Win. Mag. dies for some tasty stuff recently. Same thing with ammo I don't have rifles in. Opportunity is opportunity. Someone will want it eventually I figure.

One of my wife's friends got a divorce a few years ago. Her ex left a bunch of stuff in a box in the garage. She wants to empty the garage and ask if I want this "Junk" in a wooden box. It turns out its an old Lyman press and dies,some 30-30 brass and bullets,and a several pounds of different powders all unopened. Also some assorted other cartridges. I don't have a 30-30, but if I come across one now I have a good start.
