30 BR Wake up call

30 BR Wake up call - 09/22/2008 1:30 AM

I got dies with this new 30BR XP they are RCBS and include a Neck Size die. The FL size die is a little scrached up so I thought I would check Midway and see how much one was. $92 just for the size die. If you took the set I have it would be right at $250 for the set. I think I will clean this one up. For that much I could add $150 and rebarrel to 308. I have those dies.

Slavage is probably right. Call them up. They have sent me a new 30-06 die because they said it was scratched after removing the stuck casing I had in there. AND they sent me new stems for my 6mm PPC die after I just told them I bent it. You don’t have anything to loose by calling them.

They have always been good to me too. They sent me the new stems for free for those 44 pistol dies you have TC man

great idea! send em back....n they can polish or replace it. rcbs should be good on that.
30br would be a great caliber to have. i guess it's a winner at group/score shooting competition. check http://www.6mmbr.com/index.html for info!

The new 30 BR went to the doctor on Friday. It is getting a new center grip stock with a rosewood gripcap and forend and a new extended bolt release new matte blue job safety put back on and a new Leupold base and rings I expect it back in about 2 months. I am thinking Bill will be able to put new life back in the old girl.

Don't forget that CH-4D will make custom die sets for alot less than the big manufacturers. I looked up the 30 BR on thier site. The set is $78.25. That's less for the set than RCBS wants for the size die. I have a custom set of dies from them and they work great. The list of dies they can make is huge. They will also make a custom set of dies from a drawing, so your own wildcat is possible too and it will not break you. Here is a link to the CH-4D site;
