    Wtb. 455 eley/colt brass

    I stumbled into a very very nice Colt New Service in 455 Eley at my LGS. Couldn't turn it down. Dies are no problem and I have some .454 bullets but no brass can I find. Takes the longer MK1 case I believe or the 455 Colt HS.
    Can buy or trade if I have something you need.
    Thanks

    Bob

    Have you tired using Cowboy 45 Special brass? Basically shortened 45 Colt brass. Works in my Webleys. I can send you a few to try if you'd like.

    Springfield my mind tells me I may have a few rounds of Cowboy Special...then maybe not. I will check and get back to you. Thanks for your kindness in offering.

    The CIL brass is what you want. Wonderful stuff!
    The ENEMY is listening.
    HE wants to know what YOU know.
    Keep it to yourself.
