    450.Marlin dies for 458x2" American?

    I'm thinking of bulding a rifle in the 458x2" American. Now i was thinking if one could use the 450.Marlin dies for the 458x2" American?

    It would make things easier for my since my local dealer already carries dies in 450.marlin.

    Regards / The Swede
