I have a nice old double rifle in .500 BPE. I don't want to spend the $300 on dies. I was planning on using either 50-70 or 50-140 Sharps dies with a .500 NE shell holder. Any suggestions? :confused:

Try it! I use 45 Colt dies to load .454 Casull, and have usd the same dies to load 45ACP. seems to work OK for me. but then I don't load many ACP's.

Can't imagine why it wouldn't work. I reload 6mm-06 on 243 dies, using it as a neck sizer only. Works fine.
