500 dies
#188172 - 19/08/11 03:47 PM

I recently traded for a Ruger no 1 in 50-140 Sharps. Included in the deal was a set of custom dies. Is it possible to use these same dies to 500 N.E ?
Thanks,
Charls

Should be useful for some things such as primer popping (with the pin screwed way out), and maybe case mouth sizing, again with the expander way out near the mouth of the die.
They wont full length size your .500 cases, in fact, you may not be able to get a .500 case much further than half way in the die. I would need to look at dimensions of both.

Please post some pictures of your Ruger!
