Jeffe,
Thank You for the offer of the loan. my gunsmith buddy loaned me his, for no charge. We do work for each other and the barter system. I do computer work and stock work for him and he has been teaching me what I don't know and lets me use his lathe when mine isn't big enough for the project.

The 45./120 brass arrived today and I will punch my Buff Classic out over the weekend. and play with the round some. I will pickup some h335 and give it a try. I have used allot of REL7 and H4198 in 45/70 and 458WM. H4895 in 458LOTT with good results.

On your 550 express what action did you use? I have looked what I can find on the internet and it looks interesting:-)

Daryl,

Thanks for the load info in the 50 Alaskan, I just got it and am working up loads; so far found two accurate loads with h4198 and a 435gr and 525gr hard cast gas checked.
