    WTT for 450 bushmaster stuff

    Just put a 450 bushmaster together and could use some dies, brass, and hopefully a functional magazine or two. If anyone has some extra stuff laying and would be interested in some trading let me know.

    For my 450 BM I used untouched early Colt 20 round mags, it runs fine.

    I have 2 of those but they dont seem to like them. I was able to track down 80 once fired cases but still need dies.

    Not carbide, I'm not sure why dies for a strait wall cartridge aren't carbide. I haven't been able to find any that are.

    That explains it, although I read some where it was a straight wall.
    Thanks

    The specs are for a 0.500" base and a 0.480" diameter mouth, so a 0.020" difference (0.010" taper.

    I have 46 Hornady brass cases I picked up on the range a few weeks ago, they are in good shape, still shiny when I picked them up. What might you have to trade? I’ve been needing Lee .358 push through sizing Dies. Send PM if interested. CR
