That looks cool....very impressive.
where are the dies from,,,Is there a reamer easily available ? ECT ECT. 45nut

I got my dies when I got the gun made. SSK Industries. Both the forming and the Reloading dies are RCBS.
12.9

Where did you get those 700gr .50 cals ?
45nut

All the .510 Dia bullets were from Barns. The last time I lookes I didnt see any 700 or 800 in the original.... ??? If in doubt call them , I have found a lot of good deals doing that.

Enjoy
Happy Shooting

Fred,

Are you making your own cases or ordering them from SSK? I understand there is some lathe work involved at the rim.

Regards

I made my own, very easy. I did however have a local gunsmith turn the rims down to .532 (I think) Standard mag size.

The cases are very easy to make one you have the dies.

Fred

Excellent.

You might try a case spinner mandrel in a drill press,slip the case mouth on it and use a wooden dowel in the empty flash hole held with your left hand and a file in your right hand.

Should be able to take those rims right down pausing to measure at times.

Just a thought to try.

Have Fun with your "exercise in mammoth"

Regards
