Wildcat dies

Am looking for a set of dies for the old 270 x 257 Roberts AI or 270 x 57 AI. I can buy a new set from Redding but the wait will be over a year so looking for a set someone might have collecting dust somewhere. Thanks for any help!

You might try the Lee Precision custom shop to see what their time frame would be. jd

RCBS might have them, too. Oops, just checked their site - NOPE.

Hornaday usually makes my custom dies in 4 to 8 weeks.

Last time I asked them they said it would be six months.

Try Hornady or CH4D.
Wait times and prices vary, but it should at least be worth making a phone call....



Plus, last time I checked, Hornady had the best prices on custom dies, and CH4D has the quickest production time.
