Hi All,

The title says it all.

I'm chasing dies for 400/350 AKA 350 Rigby No 2 AKA .400/350 Rigby N.E.

CH4D are saying maybe 12 months before they expect to have some.

Have tried all their dealers that I can find.

Hope someone here may have a set, or have a lead etc.

Thanks in Advance

Mark

A bit of a bump on this one.

My quest continues.

Any leads appreciated.

CH4D are now saying 2 years :confused:
 
Another bump.
 
@Tintin I see that you have been at this for awhile.........and since your original post I have kept my eyes open .....in actual fact, most people are unaware of this cartridge....confusing it with the 350 Rigby Magnum. I have had a few discussions about this with otherwise knowledgeable traders. I can't even verify when this round was introduced, although Taylor, and Barnes list different dates, some as early as 1896. Custom might be your only option..........still looking though..........FWB
 
Sorry @flatwater bill - I missed your reply. Thanks for assisting in the search.

The wait time with CH4D for dies will teach me patience and 'the serenity to accept the things I cannot change' :rolleyes:
 
I have a 2 die set of RCBS.
Can they be shipped from the US to Australia?
 
Thanks a lot.

Have sent you a message.

Based on my experience - no issue with posting dies - I’ve done it many times (y)

I posted a while back looking for a set to. The 400/350 and 400/350 #2 are the same set of dies. the 350 Mag is for a rimless round that is different.

I am planning on having Hornaday make a set with FL and Neck sizing dies for my rigby. CH4D is a year out on their dies for backorder. Did your rifle come with the Rigby case? I am also working on tracking down a case to rehab or build one from scratch.

LIKE your takedown rifle too! Congratz

Thanks for that. Yes, it’s the original case for the rifle.

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!

Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
