New Sizer
 

I got a new sizer die. The new one is a .496 for my paper patched 500 S&W bullets. I shot my new MK 85 and the bullets were super tight going down. It was very accurate but I wanted it to load a bit easier. I have an elk hunt that is coming up soon so I made up 50 rounds to shoot and go on the hunt. It is a very short 3 day hunt next week. it will be in the desert and this year our desert is hot and dry. I hope I get a chance to warm up the barrel on a young cow. Ron

Good Luck Ron! Is it a custom Lee sizer or where did you get a .496 sizing die?

I got it from a real nice guy in Montana. He was sick for a long time but I got ahold of him this summer and he got it done. here is his link. Ron

Ive heard good things about them too. Dies are supposed to be nicely made. C4HD custom size dies are more than twice the price too.



Price including pushrod : $25.00

Price for top punch with flat: $10.00 (or to match bullet profile when ordered with a mold)

His website says he is still sick and not taking orders. I hate to bug the guy if he is ill.

hope you do well ron.I WHACKED a antelope a couple weeks ago out mud lake way.Used the 500sw 450 pp 90 grns pyro p . WHAT A HOLE!!! LUCK TO YA!

Good luck Ron! :D
