NIOA is the imoprter mate so most gunshops should be able to get them in for you. Might take a while though :D

Needing the 3 dies makes it harder, but try Redding (Series D) as you'll usually pay less then RCBS ... but get quotes on both.

CH/4D make cheaper die sets than RCBS for kinky stuff by a factor of x2-3 ... heard of someone that recently paid near $500 for an RCBS die set that would have been under $180 direct from CH/4D. Check CH/4D for neck bushing dies ... not sure if they make them ... but easy to deal with direct.

There's also a guy at AHN that goes by the username DavidC that will make you custom neck bushing dies based on 3 fired cases.

Another option is Forster, buy direct after sending 3 fired cases to them to hone the neck to exactly the clearance you require for an added US$10-15.

Cheers...

PS: Just noticed your location ... bit of fun up your way with fires? Hope no damage done, mate was evac'd Sunday and no power to return home. Fires got within a cricket-pitch of the house.
