Smile progressive dies to make casing from brass strip

i want to buy progressive dies to make casing from brass strip
right now i need 380 acp and 45 acp later i will need 9mm luger and several rifle ammo 223 7.62*39 308 etc
can anyone help? we got an extensive machine shop with cnc equipment of all sorts and if we cannot find the dies for sale we could make them if we can find the table with the dimensions for each die in the several stations that are needed to make a case . we have a manufacturing facility that runs 24 hrs/day 7 days/week and decided that we need to get into the ammo mfg business
can anyone help?
we are prepared to pay well

get a copy of the SAAMI specs on the cartridges you want (.380 can be cut out of 9mm) turn over detail drawings a tool and die maker to make the progressive die sizes unless you have extensive experience in making dies and working with tool grade steels. your gonna have a sizeable investment in the tooling and the press.

for the most part, your probably gonna need three or four head sizes. outside of the 9x19 and 9x17 listed above, the rest are all independant cartridges. have the parent cartridges made from the brass, then you can swage as needed for the sizes you want.
