All my dies for other calibers are Redding, except one RCBS set. Don't really like the RCBS - was considering the Hornady. Anyone using their dies? Opinions? Antlers Double Rifle Shooters Society Heym 450/400 3" | ||

Mine are RCBS and they work great. The only dies that I have consistently had problems with are the CH4D dies. I have a set of .470 NE and 10.75x68 CH4D dies and both are . . . well, not RCBS. Mike | |||

I'd pick RCBS over Hornady anytime ...... the only dies I've ever had problems with are Hornady, & Lee, but they're mostly cheap junk anyway. ____________________________ .470 & 9.3X74R Chapuis' Tikka O/U 9.3X74R Searcy Classics 450/.400 3" & .577 C&H .375 2 1/2" Krieghoff .500 NE Member Dallas Safari Club | |||

I have RCBS. I am having a set of Lee collet dies made for my 450/400 and my 404 Jeffery. BobC has a set of Hornady dies for his 450/400 and they do a great job.

As Rusty said, my Hornady 450-400 dies have worked perfectly. They were custom dies before they became a stock item. Price has gone way down now that they are in the catalog, I believe. I used some rcbs dies on loan before the custom dies arrive, and I can tell not difference. Bob | |||

My Hornady 450/400 dies are as well made as any die I have ever used and perform as well as all my RCBS ones. The price was more than reasonable and delivery was immediate. SCI Life Member NRA Patron Life Member DRSS | |||
