Hi,
Does anyone know if the RCBS bullet mold 50-340 swc 50 action express .(500 diameter) 340 grain semi wad cutter will drop a bullet for the Danish Rolling Block 12.7 x 44r. Also, which brass works best. Thanks , Bob

Are you sure it is danish? As far as i know, they used a 45 cal cartridge.
Norway and Sweden used the 12 mm Remington

I'm pretty sure that you want something .510-.515 for the 12.7mm.
Slug the gun and it will tell you.

For my Swede I use a Lyman 509134 RN 360 grain mould which drops at .511 with soft lead.

I have several RB in 12.7x44R I found .509/ 510 work well . . i have also use .515 /50/70 50 Alaskan works well. although the Rim size vary. 2 of Mine Take the case without problem The other 2 the rims are tight or will not close. But again a Good choice
