Want To Buy .450 3 1/4" brass

[Green Chile]

I'm seeing a lot of out of stock notices online. Anyone have 20-50 pieces they can let go?

I've got a box of Bertram basic 450 3 1/4" thick rim brass if you can use that.

Appreciate the reply but I would prefer to do business with established members. Stick around and post some more on the forums.

I have some brass for berdan primers, These can be modified for boxer primers.

I probably have the correct Berdan primers for those.
If you come up with a good way to deprime - hydraulically is the best for thin rimmed cases like the 450. The RCBS berdan decapper knarfs up the rims too easily.

I found another box of over 100 pieces so I'm good for now. Thanks for the help offered here.

The newer brass doesn't fully chamber in my vintage Purdey single but I'm going to try the trick of running it through a .510 sizer to get that last bit just above the rim to chamber. Others here have said that worked well for them.

Good to hear!
Ive run into some chambers like that - had to run them into the FLS die without a shellholder and tap them out with a brass rod.
That little bit just ahead of the rim is hard to get sometimes.
