PAHunter500 NE & 470 NE Die Set where to buy?
Hi Guys:
Where can I buy a set of either 500 NE or 470 NE dies?
My other 10 die sets are all from RCBS, do they make them for the Nito express calibers?
Thanks ... Jim P.

tiggertateA friend if mine may have a set of 470 for sale. I will try to reach him this evening and post them. Red box if I recall which could be Hornady, Bonanza or maybe Redding. I have a setof RCBS 577 NE if you ever trade up.

GarByIf you can wait until September 12th, I have a set of RCBS dies that are perfect along with a shell holder. I also have the shell holder.
Plus some brass.
If you're in a big hurry, try Huntingtons.
PM if you're interested Jim...I'm leaving for Zambia tomorrow...that's why the wait.

tiggertateThey have 470 but it doesn't come up on the caliber list for some reason. The dies I spoke of are RCBS, $282.99 from Midaway plus $20.99 for the RCBS shell holder. My buddy will sell his for $225.00 shipped from Austin TX to the lower 48 including the shell holder. Outside the 48 may take a little extra shipping.

What part of PA are you from?
I ask because myself, my dad (doc52), Retreever and a few other guys (including Bigfivejack) are on the eastern part of the state and we all have double rifles.
If you are in the market for a DR, we might be able to to do a shoot soon so you can take a couple of different rifles out for a test drive.
Send me a PM if you will.
