500 Schuler die set wanted
I need a set of dies for my rifle.
I always thought that it was a 500 Jefferys which was custom made for me many years ago.
I lost the original set of dies in a house move.
The chamber is really a metric one rather than the Jefferys version.
Both cases will chamber as the metric is slightly larger and steeper shoulder angle.

Can anyone point me as to where I may buy a set of these dies please?

I have a 500 Jeffery myself and use the CH4 dies. They look awful rough but load just fine. Price is a lot less then other sources.

Good Luck

CH4D list both the .500 Jeffery and 12.7x70mm Schuler. Same price - $189 odd.
They do note that for the Schuler, 'fired cases or chamber cast should be supplied with order'.

Hornady will make custom dies for around $165 a 2-die set; they need 3 fired cases, and preferably a reamer blueprint.
