I size down trimmed 30-40 brass and don't use an expander, just like we had to do 50 years ago to load for the "J" bore Mausers with standard 8X57 dies; we used 32 Spl bullets to load for the "J" bores. It seems to be a perfect fit for my .401 cast bullets I bought. The 30-40 rim isn't thick enough, however, and the 10X47R will need the 9.5X47R brass.

I noticed something minor that needed attention on the Nagel & Menz drilling and would never sell it knowing it needed attention. It'll go to Lee LeBas for a fix.
