Another Die question
« on: August 24, 2005, 04:49:38 PM »
I guess I should have done more reading before buying. I ordered this browning bpcr 45-70. I had a large gift certificate from Cabelas so I ordered some RCBS Legacy dies. Today while looking at a deferent Cabelas catalog I notice (45-70 government COWBOY) dies and (45-70 Sharps 408 STR) I have already ordered the government dies. did I get lucky and whats the difference. I have a bunch of modern smokeless books that don't tell the difference.
thanks, Sparky

Only one catalog out of three shows this listing for two 45-70 dies I think it must be a misprint. I supose it is a 40-70 die.
thanks, Sparky
