[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 932194, member: 12995"] Well...My rifle is done, and at my house. There ends the good news... Now for the bad news... My CH dies I scored on eBay are in-fact .300 Ackley dies, but are not cut to my chamber's specs. Apparantly they were cut to someone else's specs back in the 1950's when they were made. So, I'll probably just store them and keep them as a keepsake failure waste of $70... Those are a couple of expensive paperweights... And now the money begins... I'm going to have Redding make me a sliding sleeve (based on a fire-formed cartridge from my chamber), so I can use my Redding Comp Bushing die for neck-sizing fired cases. But I still have to have a complete set of custom dies made, which is NOT gonna be cheap, or quick. And the sad part is I need dies, like yesterday... [/QUOTE]
