I know there is a classified but dont think anyone looks, Looking for a set of dust collector 226 JDJ dies maybe even a rifle barrel contender or encore.

I purchased 225 ackley dies by CH4D for my 226. My barrel is a 7 twist barrel I had built to shoot heavies. However not for sale.
I don’t know that I’ve ever come across 226 dies for sale. Good luck on your quest, my barrel is a shooter.
Thank you, I will check with Dave on Monday, What length barrel do you have?
18 inch barrel. 69 gr. Bullet avg. vel. 2791; 80 gr. Bullet A.V. 2594. Has shot 3 shot groups under 1” at 200 yards.
Hey Sunny, how are things on the left coast? "I am surprised to find that I am standing firmly on the ground!"
What is the parent case and might you use something different to bump the shoulder. No need to full length resize is there? I've bumped the shoulder on a 6.5AI with a 7mm AI die.

The parent case is the 225 Win.
Things are going good on the BEST coast..... I am going to start out just fire forming and necking for now I have a 257 JDJ die I can use to size the body and bump the shoulder but that requires me remembering what the heck I was thinking when I started .....Quote:

Congrats Sunny, you are going to enjoy that barrel. It’s one of my favorite barrels.
do you have JD Jones load data?
I also cross referenced 225 win. data when developing my loads.
Yes I do, I have 2 225 Wins and 2 257 JDJs I had a 6.5 JDJ but for some reason I just dont get anywhere with 6.5s,Other than they keep sticking to my shoe, Maybe I should refer to them as 264s, Before I do that though I am going to have to have a 338
Did you go with a Contender or encore setup?
Both, My 226 should be here Monday first stop threading for a brake, Guess I had better find a brake today
