You will need to talk to Shawn Carlock or Kirby, they will help you.

You can get them directly from Redding.

Mikael,

I usually keep a couple different versions of the dies in stock, Redding 3 pc match grade, RCBS 2 die, & RCBS 3 die sets. The reamer can be purchased from Dave Kiff @ Pacific Precision Grinding in White City Or. I will dig up his # at the shop on Monday. Drop me an email if you need any other help.

Shawn,
Not to jump into this thread (but I will since you're here talking about it already). I have the makin's of a long range rifle here and I was thinking of just going with the 338 RUM cartridge but your 338 Edge really has me curious. I have a fairly heavy .338 caliber Rock Creek barrel, but it is only a 28" blank, along with a nesika V model single shot action. With probably only 27 1/4" or a hair more of usable length on this barrel would I gain much with the Edge version or would the RUM be perfectly suitable? I'm building a rifle for 600+ yards, most likely with an 800ish yard max for elk (depending on the performance of myself and the rifle of course).

I could possibly sweet talk a friend out of a 30" barrel in exchange for this one (both Rock Creek 5R barrels) of a little heavier contour, but I didn't want to have too heavy of a rifle.

Your recommendations would be welcome (and any others in the know)

Thanks.

What is it based on? I saw a video of someone shooting a deer with one. Very impressive.
