Good.......(snip)......If I find a hammer rifle that I really love that fits me and it comes in .500-450 which by the way I have yet to find brass or dies for, I would buy it and if the rifle fit better than all my others, well then that caliber might become my favorite once I got dies and a supply of brass......

Postman,
.500-.450 3 1/4" are easy enough to form from readily (at least in the USA) available Jamison .416-.500
True, the headstamp will not be correct and the cases will be a couple of hunredths short of 3 1/4" but like the .470 to .500 conversion it results in quite usable brass.
Of course Bertram does make proper .500-.450 3 1/4 headstamped brass, but they are out of stock at US suppliers and very expensive
Dies? RCBS/Huntington........
Actually I see that Griffin & Howe New Jersey has a set of RCBS for $100.00 listed on Guns International
