congomikeBrass can be easily formed from 06. All you need is to run it through the full length die, using a lot of lube, then trim, fireform using mild loads and you are ready. I bought all my components from Huntingtons. I have since traded the rifle, but I used 338-06 starting loads and worked them up to point of impact with the express sights that were on mine.
PM boha for info, he bought reloading dies and components somewhere...CH4D?

Shawn MasseyThanks all for your help! I now have my CH4D dies and have made 30 cases tonight! They work great and you guys saved me 75.00 by telling me about the fine folks at CH4D.com I also bought 15 rounds of factory loaded Kynoch off of gunbroker. I'm set, ready to kill something large!

Alberta CanuckGraf's has.330" diameter 205-gr. bullets. They are spitzer, whereas the original WRs were RN (at least the ones I got from WR were), but the Graf's stuff will probably work okay.
