To convert a press?? I don't know anyone just making a set of dies for a press conversion. You would have to make other adjustments to the press before just adding a new set of dies. I'm in contact with a guy from New Zealand that loads 8g without a press. He has specialized reloading tools so be has to do each step for each hull by hand.

Mike, I have been using the New Zealand method to load eights since 1969. Tell me about the 375 method.

Just like loading any other gauge on a press except with bigger dies and hulls. It's also much faster than by hand.
