Aussie have you priced out reloading dies? The RCBS/Hungington X series is $450! Ive found some custom wildcat dies in the $200 price range stuff like 600OK and 585AHR. So; I wonder if there is an economy alternative for the .505?

Something to consider if you plan to build a custom 505 is too start with a CZ550 in 458Lott. It is the same exact action, stock, dual crossbolt as the $3400 CZ gun in 505. The ONLY real difference is the sling stud and plain Jane wood. A new CZ in 458Lott is selling around $1100. Starting with the Lott, you could have the bolt face/extractor modified and rebarrel for 505. Would that work for you? Well there is another difference, the CZ550 in 505 has mercury reducers. Maybe you dont need those or the extra weight.
