I got my dies from CH4D, excellent quality. They do cost a bit more than normal though. I got brass from Buffalo Arms. They reform it from 45-70 brass. All works well and we have a load that shoots quite well in my Danish Krags, long rifles and carbines. What kind of gun are you loading for?

Regards,

Tom

Thanks for the info ,Tom . Matter of fact you should be hearing from me pretty soon , I mailed in a couple of membership apps a few days ago . I have an 89 rifle which is all original except for the stock ,which unfortunately was cut back to the barrel band . I also have several Springfields , both chopped and full military .
