    Need some help chasing dies

    Not sure if this is the right part of the forum?
    Im after a set of dies (450 Bushmaster) that aren't available locally (Australia), all on back order with no eta.
    If anyone knows a shop that stock these AND will ship internationally please let me know.
    Cabelas don't, asked them already.
    Cheers from downunder.

    Reloading dies are not regulated since they are for handloading.
    Anyone could buy you a set and ship them if you want to pay the price of shipping to Oz.

    Thanks for the reply. So an individual can send them but a shop can't or just wont?
    Now to find a trustworthy individual I've never met to take my money

    might try Midsouth Shooters Supply, they advertise as shipping internationally and have Hornady dies in stock for 450 Bushmaster.

    The Amazon shopping site in the USA lists the Hornady dies and the shipping rates to Oz are shown on the web page below.

    Don't know if this helps, but I use a set of 284 win dies to size, a 45 acp expander die, and put a slight crimp on with the seating/crimp die, then back off the 284 die and hit it lightly as kind of a taper crimp die. So far, no problems

    Midway or Sinclair might ship to Australia.

    Evilbay? If not at their .au section their .com has them from several sellers. Ebay itself ships internationally, now, for sellers, who simply ship their sold goods to an Ebay center.
