It's a 1917 and has to retain the case mouth head space with a .453 maximum dia cast bullets .
The 45 mag dies came up dirt cheap compared to the Colts dies I looked up yesterday........ $75 !?! I only gave 25 for the mag dies .
As a plus I can hop the S&W up to +P+ like 18 kpsi and be well into standard Colts loads and nowhere near the working limits of the 1918 N frame .
Added cool factor for having a 45 S&W S&W that will run 5 cartridges with data and even the hot one is safe in the no heat treat do to jump and throat length dropping pressures .
358 Win 360-238 XCB NOE , 20 rounds 8.5 Unique for fire form FC 308 .
257 Roberts 257412 10 Unique 20 something to shoot.
275 Rigby 7mm 168 RCBS 8&8.5 Unique and 41&41.5 DuPont 4350.
25-06' 260-120 NOE 50, 50.5 ,51 ,51.5 H4831: the bullet weighs 124.5 gr .

I shot all of that up in like May the 358 is really docile in that 8.5# Mauser pattern rifle .
125 gr 2" groups at 2600 fps in the 25-06' .
I can't remember the last time I saw so many get laid here ads .
The 257 makes a fine transition rifle plenty capable here in 30-30 rules land .
The 275 is a wreck , the 178gr 7mm-168 isn't going to work there .
The 1100 fps 530 gr 45-70 works well for typical woods work here although I'm yet to make a kill .
Loaded 30 7×57 , 6 loads of 5ea in 4350 . 20 with the 7mm-168 RCBS and 2 loads with 287-154 NOE Hunter .
50 each of the proven 35-250 RCBS in the 358 Win .
Transfer to small sheets from the large backers .
