As the title says looking for dies, brass, 180gr. 308 bullets, ammo, snap caps, etc. Will require texts, specific pics and phone conversation before sending money, so scammers can just move on to a different target. Please DM with what you have. Thanks.

Also looking for 35 Whelen snap caps as well.
 
I know it's hard to get and anyone who has a rifle won't want to give anything up, but hoping maybe someone no longer has a gun for it but still has some unneeded, almost forgotten ammo/components.....
 
Have acquired dies. Still in need of brass/ammo. Thanks
 
I fell your pain. Stating the obvious here, but keep a close eye on GB, maybe other sources as well, for 30 R Blaser ammo and brass. It comes up from time to time, is typically expensive and doesn't last long. I looked for this ammo for several months with no success, but with a tip from a fellow AH member I was able to locate one full box and one partial box (15 loaded+5 brass) RWS ammo on GB. $275 after shipping. Painful, but not as painful as no ammo, and now at least I have 40 rounds to keep reloading until I find more. I am always looking. Good luck and if I come across some I will let you know.

I guess I got really lucky and received 52 RWS rounds plus 8 brass with the rifle! I also have a friend with contacts in Germany that thinks he can get brass but it may take a year so we will see. If that happens, I’ll pass the info along to you as well! If I can grab a few things here or there in the mean time, I will, but the plan is to load and shoot the 8 brass as many times as I can get away with and keep the RWS for hunting which may last a few years
 
Nordic Marksman in Canada has RWS .30R Blaser ammunition in stock. I see you are in Maine USA. Perhaps you could purchase some with the help of a Canadian and arrange for pick up, but not sure what your USA import laws might think of that.
 
Thank you @Longwalker! I’m actually taking a trip to Canada in Oct and will be within an hour of there. I’ll have to see if I can work something out!

After looking into it, it doesn't really seem feasible as a US citizen unless you fill out a form before going into the country with the intent to purchase because you are there hunting.
 
Another option may be to buy empty brass cartridge casings in Canada, a firearms licence is not required to buy brass.

About your .35 Whelen and search for snap caps ... the shoulder dimensions of .35 Whelen is the same as for the parent cartridge .30-06. Just use .30-06 snap caps!
 
Still looking if anyone happens to remember having any. As mentioned above brass from Canada is a possibility if anyone knows of any. Thanks!

Do you mind me asking what auction you are referencing? I'm not in the market for any of those rifles...just curious.

Good morning from Montana.

I'm looking at a post from 2018 where you were looking for a lefty Winchester in .375 H&H Magnum. I'm selling mine. My email is [redacted] in the event that you're still searching for a unicorn.

Best,

Kelly Palmer
