Well that sold quickly. Must have been priced right!


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

If dies are not included, are died for these calibers available? I don't load, but I'm curious.


I meant to be DSC Member...bad typing skills.

CH Tool has them in stock or can make them. Just about anything and at 1/2 the cost or RCBS

The Watson came with dies. Like Cal said, CH makes them. However, their quality suffers sometimes. I'm having to send back my second set of .475 dies as they have chatter marks inside the seating die that scars the projectiles. Had this happen before with them.

. . . and 1/3 the quality. CH4D dies are a great option when there is no other option.
