    More shagging around forming brass, and I suspect Gibbs dies would be a lot harder to source than 06AI ?

    Run a 178 ELD-X in your current chambering

    Redding make them. Neck to 338, back down to .30 - now you have two shoulders and go shoot a mid range loads of h4350. Case formed.

    You want max velocity with heavies in .30 cal on a 470 boltface, that's how you do it!.

    I consulted Frank Barnes (Cartridges of the World). He says you're right on the money!
