Looking for 25-35 Ackley Improved (40 degrees) dies

Wow, not your 243 Win kinda dies. Best I've found is CH4D, two die set, $83.20, designed for .258 bullet, .256 expander ball Actually, all I need is the FL die for case sizing, since most reloading will be necksize only.

Midway has the RCBS and Redding dies for @120, and they aren't shy about their form dies, either.

After much genuflection, I'll resize 30-30 brass in two steps, 30-30 to 7-30, then 7-30 to 25-35 AI. Might need some neck reaming due to thickness, though.

Why not just fire form regular .25-35 cases ? Also I think you may need to FL size those cases after firing if you are using them in a Levergun as the shoulder usually needs to be set back a few .000 so they will chamber with a minimum of effort.

You might try fire forming 25-35 brass. Actually you have to anyway.

Then you can neck size with a .250 Savage FL die.

A .250AI Savage FL die will even have the right shoulder angle.

Grafs will often get you a discount on buying unusual Redding dies through them.
