Package #1 came today ! My RCBS Dies and 100 more starline brass, I worked 12 hours an 20 minutes, Tired as hell thinking of eating , taking a shower , going to bed. Walk in the front door, see the midway logo on a package, Within 5 minutes The case mouth die and shell holder are in place and i am Running primed brass through it at a very rapid pace. I stopped long enough to cook and eat to burgers, now its time to Load up some ammo, 210 grain Sierra is all i have, so i think 25 light loads , thinking Unique, Then 15 Medium power loads, probably Unique also , and 10 Warm loads probably 296 or H110 ! ...tj3006 PS had not bought a new set of RCBS Carbide Dies in years i like them, 2 seating stems ! I think that,s cooler than a free shell holder ! ...tj

Get your hands on some heavier bullets. Both my .41 Bisleys love a 240gr Keith & I'm looking forward to trying out some 250 & 265gr boolitz.

Yes its a .41 Mag, As for heavier bullets It will likely happen, But I am hoping the 210 to say 225gr number shoots well. I have 2 44s a .45 LC already and Will receive a 454 Casull from Gary Reeder this springtime, So i can shoot heavy stuff in those. I have a box on the way from Cast performance holding 300 plain base SWCs . that i think are either 215 or 225 gr. And that,s going to have to do for awhile. And even the Big Eastern oregon Mule deer, and my biggest so far weighed about 260, will drop plenty fast with a good shot in the weight i mentioned above. I need to buy some 2400, my experience with powders, says its Accurate , but not quite as fast as 296 H110, but just something in the way the recoil feels, that suits me with 2400. probably all in my head, but who cares ! ...tj

It shoots extremely well and always gives me the speeds that I'm looking for without pushing too hard. I shoot it in everything from 32H&R up to 500 JRH. Right now, it's my favorite load for both hunting and practice under a 215gr LSWCHP. Plenty of power to hunt with, and when sighted in 2-2.5" high at 25 yards, it's POA at 100 yards.

I understand the OP. I ordered a Simply Rugged holster early in the month and have had one ear tuned for the sound of a UPS truck since 5 minutes after that phone call. Check the steps and between the doors every eve when I get home.

I'm in the same boat. Been waiting for 5 months for my BFR in 500 JRH and it arrived today. As soon as I got the call from my FFL I went down to pick it up, bring it home and get it set up with the scope base and RDS. Now I just have to wait for the weekend to go out and shoot it.

So far I am very impressed. Fit and finish is great. I haven’t measured it yet but the B/C gap is tight. Must be .001 to .0015 range
