Yeah...yeah. ... you're not gonna find a 13/16ths by 20 tpi nut at Home Depot or Lowe's.

at O'Reilly has them for 3 bucks and change vs. Dillon's 5 bucks each.

 

If you buy trim dies, each extra trim die that you buy, does NOT come with a jam nut.

Drilled and tapped the first 5 I bought from O'Reilly's:

Screwed the jam nut onto the trim die.  Inserted a piece of lead bird shot into the tapped hole.  Then screwed in a 10X32 set screw... to mash the birdshot into the die's threads to pretty much lock the jam nut onto the die__  So once I get set up for say .300 blackout  I should be able to move the trimmer back to the .223 toolhead with some repeatability as far as COAL.
