Hi
Getting a 405 Winchester made up on a Eddystone action that was 303/25,not much in the way of bullets,like jacketed,will be getting a few bullet moulds for it,but is there anyone out there making .412 bullets out of scrap brass and making their own???

Would have to be around 300-350gr in weight or even more.
What case would you use?

Btsniper,do you make swaging dies for this cal?
Just getting a feeler out there,will go from there by the replies,otherwise I'll get moulds to cast bullets.

Richard Corbin has a 5 die set to swage a 0.411 flat base bullet. Open tip, lead tip and dual diameter tip for use with copper tubing jackets or drawn jackets. $594. If you use a Walnut Hill press you're in business.

PS He says they are "in stock & ond sale today". Take that with a grain of salt. I ordered a lead extrusion die set "in stock and on sale today" exactly 2 mos ago and havn't got them yet. Richard says he still has to take the dies off the shelf to clean and test them before he ships. The Obummer scare and an illness in the family have not allowed him to catch up.

I certainly could. Anything is possible. I would have to have a reamer cut then it's just a matter of time to get the die completed.

I have made 416 bullets over 300 grains using 40 S&W brass before.

matter of fact, you could simply use a set of CH .410 cal dies and lap them up just a little. that is what I did with the 416

Thanks BT
You reckon that getting a set of CH4D dies would be the go and lap them out,do they come in a SP style or Fn,not that it matters,both would be good?

Cheers
