In Search Of 500/465 Ammo and/or Woodleigh .465 Nitro (.468″) 480gr RN SN Bullets

Hey Guys,

Does anyone have some Woodleigh .465 Nitro (.468″) 480gr RN SN Bullets they would part with? I might even look at some Kynoch loaded ammo. Thank you!

That is a tough one to find. I did a search on gunbroker and found some Kynoch ammunition. I also found bullets, Barnes RN and some unknown make (you might message the seller).

Check out the North Fork cup point solid. They are available in my understanding from both North Fork and other knowledgeable parties is that they are very safe for a vintage Double. They are not a true soft but hell on Buffalo and likely much more reliable than Hawk on Buffalo. I am having superior load me some to try

Thank you sir -- I love those loads but Lonnie and I are trying to stick to Woodleigh, at least for now.

These two companies import Woodleigh bullets from time to time. You might contact them and ask if they can get you a batch of .468"s. I recently managed to buy four boxes of Woodleigh 6.5mm 160gr RN bullets from Reloading International.

Sort of off topic I know 500/450 can be made from 470 brass just run through a FL die and trimmed. Is that also true of 500/465?

Yes, it can be.

I have a tropical tin if that would be of any interest to you.

Reloading International is placing an order with Woodleigh end of Summer or early Fall. If you email Chris you can place a preorder of everything you want. I just did it for 375cal Woodleigh Hydro's. I reached out to Raven Rock but they are not planning to place an order anytime soon. If you send me a DM I will be glad to give you his email!
