<FFg>Can I load 2.75" .577's with 3" .577 dies?
I currently load for a .577 3" BPE. I'm interested in a single-shot .577 2-3/4" and I am wondering if I can use the same dies? (e.g., loading .38 specials in .357 mag dies.) Thanks!

But you could load 3" shells in the 2.75" dies.
Maybe you can just buy a crimp die from www.ch4d.com and save the cost of a whole new die set.
