Still looking to buy 8x57JR dies. Will consider borrowing for an extended period also.

Mickey,

You can just use standard 8x57 dies. If the neck is expanded too large you can buy a .318 expander, polish down the .323 expander, or just not use the expander. I did the latter and would just take the decapping assembly out of my .30/06 dies and use it in the 8x57 dies. Everything worked just fine.

Hope this helps.

You do want to make sure that your bore diameter is .323 not .318. Best determined by slugging the barrel.
