Beating the horse on this one a bit gents but what dies suit the factory 505 the best? I seem to recall some reported differences in gibbs chambers over the years so wondered if there might be any die brands to particularly choose/avoid for this rifle?

Hello, Karl. FWIW, I use the RCBS 3 die set. I crimp in a separate operation with a Lee Factory Crimp die. The big .505 case will require a big press, like the RCBS Ammomaster 2. Cheers, Chip.

I use the RCBS dies. I use the standard RCBS Rockchucker press with the 1-1/4" insert for the larger 505 dies. Works just fine.
