408 The way it should be

[TwistedFox]

These are for the .408 Collossus? What reloading equipment , dies and powder are utilized to create ammo?

When you say to those I'm guessing you're talkin about the projectiles? the 400 Warlord and the 408 Colossus are both .408 diameter caliber cartridges. But both are completely different size length and diameter cartridges the warlord utilizes the CheyTac sized action and the Colossus requires the 20x action from Pierce it is a Barrett size action. As far as reloading is concerned I make the dies for both the warlord and Colossus both utilize a 1.250 12 TPI die and reloasing press I personally use a redding press with the block adapter plug removed for sizing it can also be used for seating but it's kind of a pain in the ***. I personally use a twenty-first century press and styled died for seating but either way works

The warlord and the Colossus require the use of BMG burn rate powder we are currently using and testing rl50 h50bmg vv20n29 and vv 24n41. There is also a 416 Warlord and it is quite possible to utilize. Vv570 but yet to be tested with that powder.

What size primer do those use?
In the game of acquiring components these are sometimes the limiting factor for some rounds

The 300 rounds were .408 Collossus?

No perhaps not sorry guy. The action is a signature series prototype one of the first to made for our designs by John Pierce and of course the chassis itself the one first prototype chassis so is the barrel so is the Turner brake so is the bipod so is the cartridge it will stay in my collection pretty much forever
