I use ch4 dies with no drama's at all, they are much cheaper than the RCBS ones and work well.

Give the woodleigh bullets a go there great !!

Forgot to add Varget works well with the 500 gr and above bullets for the 50-110 but was a little to slow for the 400 gr variety.

The dies are here. Barnes also makes nice 350 and 450 grain 50-110 bullets. They are the original jacketed lead bullets, not Barnes X. I shoot them in my 500 Linebaugh.

Pacnor are good barels.............steer clear of Badger barrels there customer service is terrible, he would not reposnd to my enquiries for purchasing .585 Nyati barrels from them, subsequently I had to get them else where.

Dave Clay uses a 1-22 twist........thats what I went for with mine, my barrel is and aussie made sprinter barrel.

I read Stallmans site about barrel breakins , he says barrels that string bullets come from improper breakin procedure of the barrel ! I'll never buy from Badger ! stringing bullets come from improper stress relieving from manufacturing ! I have a 45 from green Mountain very impressed with it , Their 50's are slower twists 1in24" stress relieved and very good quality from my experience .
