I don’t think lee makes one for the .505, CH Tool and die may, I will try new chamfer then go from there.

Yes the bullet fit in case mouth, it’s offset when just expanded seems as expander may be entering case mouth off centre, ordered a new chamfer-deburr tool on order hoping that solves the problem.

The neck expander seems to be causing the issue by expanding one side of the neck more than the other, I ordered a new chamfer tool may be a burr forcing the expander off to one side.

Upon further investigation it seems like the expander plug is expanding it slightly offset, might try belling it out with chamfer tool before expanding.

The cases were expanded using the step expanding plug, I may change my seat plug to the more rounded one and see if that makes a difference, I guess I could always pull the worst ones.

They crimp had no effect on the bullets they were “off” before, I could pull them but had a pain of a time getting them as good as I did.

So…. I finally got some brass in and loaded up a few rounds of .505 to test when I get my rifle back from the gunsmith, while seating the bullets (Barnes TSX and Woodleigh RN SP) I noticed that I was having a difficult time getting them to seat “square”, I have reloaded other calibers (7.5...

.458 Imperial Magnum, AKA .458 Canadian Magnum. https://cartridgecollector.net/cartridge/458-canadian-magnum/

Look up .458 Imperial Mag In Cartridges of the world. That’s pretty much what you have there.

Ya After lots of reading the .505 seemed like a good choice, my gunsmith will have his work cut out for him to get it to feed, I need 100% reliability. Not gonna be a fancy gun but it should get the job done!

Oh how I wish we had Trump, we are stuck with Trudeau………. You have no idea how bad it is.

My standard hunting loads will be within factory range, wouldn’t mind ramping a few up just for the recoil experience After all my research the .505 was the biggest I could get. And so happens I bought a whole reloading set for $900 2 bags of Norma brass, 11 boxes of bullets (1 Box Swift A...

9.3x62 does wonders on deer too, drops em with almost no meat loss

450 Nitro, .470 Nitro probably they were pretty common back in the golden days of African safaris.

Ya, hopefully this nightmare ends soon! Us gun owners have taken a sh!t kicking these past few years. Like a really really bad $hit kickin, apparently now they want to give deer birth control, ya figure that one out. Another way to make hunting obsolete. And no I am not joking.

A bit late to the party, hopefully not reviving this thread but I am curious, did you get your barrel from Jay? I have one on order now, CZ contour without sight boss/ recoil lug. I am building on a Brno 602.

I Have a .458 Win and I have shot a .460 Weatherby, but unfortunately our leader Banned the .460 because its over 10,000J of energy so my best option was .505 because its loaded light from factory and not banned and has lots of potential. + I want to shoot a really heavy recoiling rifle! My .458...

Hello, I am new to Africa Hunting, I am in the works of having a .505 Gibbs Built on a Brno 602 action, Pac Nor Barrel and a CZ 550 American Safari stock by B&C. Anyway I am looking for some good loads using H-4831 SC or H-4350. I would consider other powders but want to avoid fillers or really...
