Sorry for the hijack, but Antlers, how is the search for a double coming along?

Paul, I honestly think that if I had handled the Heym 450/400 in January the decision would have been made. I hope to handle one soon.

NITRO450Exp, I would be interested in buying your trim die for the 470NE! Send me a PM, or an E-mail at DUGABOY1@aol.com ! I'll send a PM as well, in case you don't see this post again!

Guys,

The Lyman case trimmer for drill press has a universal shell holder that takes a .470 NE just fine. I mounted mine on a plate that can be held in the jaws of a mill vise ... and this allows high precision location of the case axis.

If you don't count the cost of the drill press or milling machine it is a relatively inexpensive solution to the problem Wink

I have a Forster I believe it is the classic model? No BS no modifications and it has room to spare with a .470NE case.

Great info guy's, Thanks. Big Grin
Bought master reloading kit from RCBS, 20 years ago, Before Rockchuker supreme press and I was into Big Bores and Doubles. So I wanted to make it work. But for future expansion I will consider.
