500NE to 470NE?
Hey guys,

If I neck down some BELL 500NE brass down to 470NE will I have to turn the necks as one usally would when necking down? I know BELL sold their 500 brass for this purpose. I have a standard chamber, though I have not yet made a cast of it.

Hey Cokdnloded, if you have 500NE Bell brass please sell it to me. Then you could buy some .470NE brass from Norma or shoot some Federal stuff and use the brass. You can load that Federal 12-15 times. Is that .500NE brass 3in. or 3 1/4 in.?

Are you saying that the Federal brass is superior to the Norma?

I would be willing to part with the brass. PM me your email addy.

Coknl,

I have used both Fed and Norma .470 brass (and Bell) and could not tell any difference.
