You have to call Neal up on the old fashioned telephone.

 

Received contact information from Neal Waltz. He retired and turned the die fabrication over to Greg Walley. I have a die on order. Following is Greg’s response.

“22 rimfire ammunition bullet modification dies are now in continuous production.

These dies are the original design by Neal B. Waltz, who has been making them for over 30 years.

Neal asked that I take over the business of making and selling these dies. He has retired from the business.

To order, please send a check or money order made out to Greg Walley for $180, plus $15 shipping for a total of $195.

Pricing has increased since posting this. Please contact Greg Walley for current pricing.

The dies will be sent by USPS Priority Mail. Allow 4-6 weeks for delivery.

Thanks for your interest and best regards,

I have been in correspondence with Mr. Walley for the past couple of months. He responds quickly to my texts, but be informed that he is very busy, and has had problems with his machinery. I ordered my NW die set back in the beginning of August, and still have not received my order. 4-6 week delivery time is a little conservative. It will be more like 2-3 months for a delivery. Also, I was told to send a money order for $220, not $195. If you contact Greg directly, he is a very nice guy, but sounds like he may be a little overwhelmed with the orders, so patience will be a virtue here. 🇺🇸👍🏼

 

OK, Im curious. Folks are reloading LR ammo? What dies do you get here? Are the for use in standard presses? Where are components coming from? What about priming? Most importantly where are yall getting load data from?

 

The Neil Waltz die is not for reloading. It is for turning 22lr ammo into either hollow point, or as NW calls it, Eley nipple tip. If you look at Eley Match or Eley Team, the crown of their ammo has a little nipple on it. Supposedly helps with better accuracy. This is a bullet reshaping die only. I don’t waist my time reloading 22 ammo. If you buy non match grade ammunition, you can use this die to make them match grade, supposedly. I’m still waiting on my order from 2 months ago. Can’t wait to see if it’s worth the effort.

 

The die will give you more consistent cheaper ammo. No silk purse

 

His time frame to me was 3 months - nuff said —

 

i wish I knew this earlier. I don't mind waiting but have been getting a bit antsy after 8 weeks. Now I know it will be at least another month.

 

Send him a follow up correspondence email or text. Greg is a nice guy, but I feel he is overwhelmed with orders since his product is so unique and effective. He prioritizes people who are in constant communication with him. He also travels a lot, so make sure he knows about your wait time already… good luck.

 

He should be prioritizing by order date. Greg cashed my check 2 months ago on 9/17/24.

 

I agree. I was told that my die was going out with a certain batch within 4-6 weeks, as well as him having issues with his tooling machine. I stayed on the peddle with Mr.Walley to make sure my product was delivered. Reach out to him to make sure he knows you are waiting patiently. I sent him a money order for $220 that seemed a little shady, but I put my trust in him, since he was entrusted by Mr. Neil Waltz to take over the business.
Remember, you are not dealing with Amazon or some other reputable company that has a track record. We are all taking a chance here. I got mine, so I can attest the product will get delivered eventually. You just need to stay on top of it unfortunately….

 

I have one from Neal, and I can tell you that if you hunt with 22ś the HPing tool is unbelievable what it does to the terminal effect of solid bullets. So far with several different bullets (even match) no loss of accuracy. We can hear meat reports even beyond 200 yards on prairie dogs.

 

I bought mine from Mr. Walley and was pleased with his communication and delivery time.

 

There's one for sale in the classifieds/marketplace on here

 

 

That one appears to be sold.

 

Great price. I paid $220!

 

Outstanding! Best of luck on the 100!

 

Any updates on this?
Thanks

 

Last Greg told me was he has not started production again since the fire. I've been waiting since August of last year.

 

Thanks for the update

 

Has there been any update on when he will start production again

 

When I last contacted him, he told me he would "try" to get mine out by the end of the month; that was at the beginning of July. I sure wouldn't send him any money at this point.
