30 newton

[coletrain]

Just picked up a beautiful Newton rifle in 30 Newton. Ive never heard of it until now but i couldnt pass it up. Now im trying to find brass or even loaded ammo for it but nothing seems to come up anywhere. Ive never tried reloading before but i really want to get into it. If anyone has some insight to anything i might need, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thank y'all very much

The 30 Newton was the first case to remove the belt and have a rim and case body of .532". It is the case they used to develop the Ruger line.
Forming brass will have to be done from a Ruger, either 375 or 416.
If dimensions aren't suitable for this, then you're out of luck because no one has made 30 Newton brass in 70 years.

Cheers.

A local shop has a set of dies, I'd be willing to pick them up and ship them to you if you want.

@Ckgworks Id be very happy to have those dies if they're not too terribly expenisve

And i would post pictures but for some reason it wont allow me to. Ive had my account for a long time but i havent been active on it so i guess ive never gotten the extra permissions

I'll check, and get back to you......that stores prices are usually very reasonable dies are usually $15-$40 with most being $20.00.

I have unfired 30 Newton brass. Make me an offer for each. I am not sure how many there are. The reason I asked for unit price offer.

@bamban I would be more than happy to take those brass off your hands, can you give me a rough estimate or a count of the brass so i can give you a better offer?

Check Qual Cart, I sourced some 35 Newton from them. Check 4D prints, 35 Newton showed case capacity very similar to 358 Norma Mag, so I will use data for that. I see cases made from 375 Ruger, might even be able to use 300 PRC as an option as well.
