I just placed an order for custom dies for 450-400 3" from Hornady, who have an active custom shop. They say that turnaround time is 6 to 8 weeks; price for 2 die set with elliptical expander and a custom shell holder and shipping is less than $190. That's cheaper than off the shelf RCBS without a shell holder. When JJ cast my chambers he said they were just a bit oversized and to go with custom dies if available. I sent 2 fired cases for each barrel.

I'll let ya'll know how they turn out.

If anybody else is interested call Lonnie Hummel at Hornady, 800-338-3220 x 208. Nice guy to deal with. Bob
