sr25: "how do they shoot?"
Well, I don't know yet! This is what I am doing to satisfy my .404 Jeffery itch while waiting for the rifle to be finished.
MartinPotts:
Thanks for the compliment! .223 brass is good for .375 H&H bullets also, and it is easy enough to come by. I was also going to try .303 british brass for .458 cal bullets as I have a bunch of the brass case, but berdan primed, ammo that was surplused out a couple of years ago. Those cases in the picture above could also be drawn down for .416 Rigby. Richard from RCE has been great to deal with!

Yes thay make nice bullet's i used the 7.62x39 case's to make .458's and 7.7 Jap/ to make it as well
Ted Smith Made die's set'sto use38 Spec/ case's
to make .375's

Nice bullet's you have there very nice
It's kinda funny you should mention 404 Jeffery bullet's
i just ordered a set of .423 Die's from Richard
So i could make up some 300 grain and 350 grain NF copy's
for someone here on the board.
richard's got 5 MultiSwage ready to be put together
i ordered one he has them at a discount 1900.00
he's still got 4 left he still also has a few of the older press's left the older WallNut Hill's the one's you can't reload with .
There ment for just swaging on i bought one myself not long ago for a back up there's no diffrent's between the two press's
He has some surplus die's not listed on the web site also
I bought the point former out of a .375 and one out of a .458 Thursday he's going to replace it with what ever some one want's ...
He also has some other press's on hand give rich a call
And as for butch he's home now after his L O N G trip around the USA getting tooling for his shop his been home now for about 2 or 3 week's after being stuck here in Oregon for a week at Richard's ..

Once agaon nice bullet's

Just a quick question .
How many have gone to Gas Checking your bullet becouse of the lack of Jacket's out there.
Or do you normaly use Gas Check's rather then jacket's
