Check the Midway site again. It says "Out of Stock,No Backorder". If you can still find it I would grab as much as you can.

The dies you have may do the job. I would load a few and see how they turn out. Check the run out to see if they will produce acceptable loads.

If you go the custom die route. I would get a Body Die for sizing new brass and bumping the shoulders back. A Bushing Neck Sizing Die for sizing your case necks between firings and a Micrometer Top Seating Die. Like jo191145 said, if you can get a hold of the reamer used on your chamber, that would make it possible to have dies made that perfectly match your rifle.

For hard to find brass and dies, you might try huntingtons.com.

Brass is available from Midsouth. I have 500 rounds now and could order more but I don't know how much I will need. Once this rifle is sighted in it will strictly be for predators. I have a blueprint for the build so the exact dimensions are on there. I could have Redding build me a set of dies off of the blueprint I guess.

Lee thanks for the tip.
