loading for 11.7 Danish
« on: November 21, 2004, 11:49:36 AM »
Hi all, Hopefully I am finally going to get to tool up to shoot my danish rolling block,ive lost track of how long ive had the beast.Could anyone suggest what dies to use? I am figuring on using 45-70 brass and neck sizing only after initial firing with new cases. Any recomendation on bullets in the 380 to 405 gr.size would also be appreciated.(going to try out some loads with commercial cast lead before i invest in a mold) I intend on using blackpowder(GOEX) only in this rifle although it is proofed for smokeless.Thanks in advance for any and all help.regards,jim

I used C&H 4D dies for mine. Buffalo Arms has them at under $70 in stock. I also use them for a few of my other oddball chamberings, and they're great dies!
