[rec.guns] .577 Snider

clochmul@nrambr.chem.duke.edu (CHL) (06/15/91)

I have a near mint .577 Snider conversion Enfield in carbine. Dated 1871.
All parts present even to firing pin wrench. Shiny bore.

Problem: Generic Brass - current sources? I hear Bell locked their doors.

I have loading data. I have the modern bullet mold. I would like to fine
loading dies at prices more reasonable that RCBS's quote of $240!

Any suggestions?

I give you a couple bucks for it ... ?   ;-)  ]
