First of all, sorry if this is the wrong topic, moderators please put the thread where it belongs.

I have just got my rook rifle in this caliber, I have found out that brass from 9,3x72r are easily converted to fit my 360NE 21/4", and bullets are possible to get a hold on - but die set isn't that easy. RCBS has stopped to produce them, and the waiting time to get one made on a custom order is long.

Is there any chance that one of you are aware of one laying and collecting dust?

If you got one second hand, im very interested in that to.

Thanks in advance - Boryx

I'd contact CH4D
https://www.ch4d.com/

They do list them, may have a set on the shelf.

I must agree with Craigster on his recommendation.
I did a quick search on Ebay, Gunbrokr and Amazon with no results.
CH4D may be your only option, I found them easy to deal with.

CH4D is great but I reload 360 NE 2 1/4 by neck-sizing with a 38 special die. 9.3x72r shortened also ought to neck size with a 38 special die. Or the guy who had the rifle before me used 38-55's and neck-sized.

Thank you for all your ideas. I have now been in contact with CH4D, they were very helpful but there was no one on the shelf.

So I might consider to necksize with a .38 speciel die (if I can borrow one until the correct die will be ready to ship.

Thanks again for all your help.

Best regards - Bo

I used to neck size 9.3x72 in a 357 mag die as well back when I had that JP Sauer drilling. The low pressures don't expand the brass enough to need FL sizing.
