.600 Nitro Package For Sale

So RCBS will no longer do them? I have access to a large machine shop - maybe need to make a set??
Actually, a sizing die is really all that is necessary, if shooting for fun, and especially with reduced loads.
 
RCBS has been out of the cusstom die business for years. You don't need a sizing die if shooting in the same rifle. You will need a seat die with a crimp.
 
So, absent a resizing die or a universal decapping die how do you decap spent primers from these "big boy" cases? To my knowledge, I know of no universal decapping dies that will handle such large cases. Plus, if you get past the decapping issue, you really don't need a seating/crimping die either if you are not resizing. One can pretty much seat the bullet by hand pressure, and crimping is really not necessary if you are just range shooting.
 
I deprime with a small punch and small hammer. As the cases are fired and not resized they may not hold a bullet in place with a friction fit. A crimp is nice on a heavy kicking rifle. Yes, if range shooting one at a time, placing the bullet in with your hand may work. I would not recommend this if a double with both barrels loaded as the bullet may shift forward when the other barrel is fired.
And, I depart for a week caribou and grizzly hunting tomorrow early so won't be on the computer for about a week. I write this so if you message me and I don't reply you won't think I'm rude.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
