Interesting Lyman/Ideal 310 tool factoids.

308 cases won't go into a 30-06 sizer as they are too short. The handles can be used for 308 or any other case based on the 30-06. You can size 308 cases in 30-40 Krag dies as the Krag dies are shorter than the 30-06 dies.

The numbers stamped on the dies are not calibers. At one time Lyman and Idea marked their dies with a code stamp for each caliber. #30 is the 32-40 Remington, I don't know what #25 means.
