Special calibers not listed on the front of this bulletin can be accommodated most 
times, call or email for specific calibers.  Additionally, blank case holders are 
available for wildcat users that have access to chamber reamer for their specific 
caliber.  These are available, complete with detailed instructions and drawings 
from GTC.   
 
Case holders for neck sized only cases are available by special order.  You must 
send me three neck sized cases to be used with the trimmer so I can fit a case 
holder to your brass.  Contact GTC for further details if interested.
