What size collet do I need?

[rtrimyer]

I have a PSI Collet set, what size collet do I need to order to hold a 30caleber bullet? I know the PSI system is ER32, just do not know what size collet to get. I will probably order from ebay 800 watt, they seem to be recomended around here as very trust worthy.

Thank you,

Robert

Robert,
have you considered purchasing the entire 18 collet set? 800 watt has several on ebay with a starting bid of $49.99. Maybe you can get one of them at a good price. You will pay around $10-12 for just one. you will find they are useful for holding all sorts of things. I bought my set several years ago for $100.
Do a good turn daily!

I would like to someday get an entire set, but right now I don't have enough money to get an entire set. I know in the long run it is more expensive to buy the one I need now and get a full set later, but that is where I am at right now if I want to make bullet pens I woud like to use my collet set to do that. Also, if there is anyone out there that has an extra of the size I need and would like to work out a trade I am up for that.
Thank you,

Robert

You need a 5/16th in the ER32 series as the bullet diameter is .308 for 30 caliber. The range on an the 5/16th collet is .275 to .315.
