Ordered a set last week from Graf & Sons

First I have seen these offered in a while

Mine arrived in the mail today.

Thanks! Perhaps I should order one. A suitable rifle should come along soon enough.

That’s good news, but I’ll keep holding my breath for them to do a batch of .38-72 WCF.

Steve, I wouldn’t hold your breath.  If you really need a set and can’t find it used the only option is to order a custom set from Redding.

Jim, when you first posted about these I went on their website but could not find a listing?

Chuck,

When I first received an e-mail that they were back in stock- the site showed only 5 available

Quickly out of stock again

My problem is I can’t bring myself to spend four or five times the amount of the highest I’ve ever paid for a set of dies.  And I’ve bought a lot of die sets.

Times have changed.  Since RCBS quit making the non standard dies I would buy what I can find.  If you don’t want to shoot it you can keep looking for a used set or order a custom set.

Agreed. But someday I’ll have another 1886 and there’s a good chance it will be a 33 WCF. I was a bit too slow this time, next time maybe I won’t be. OTOH in today’s world compared to gas and groceries that $105 looks like a good value.

I feel very old right now.

I need a set of .38-72 dies.  I like Redding dies. I prefer Redding dies.  And here’s a place that has them.  They even have three sets in stock:

https://store.prophetriver.com/redding-full-length-sets-38-72-winchester-custom-80857/

 

So, what’s the problem?  The problem is called $309 (plus tax and shipping) Surprised
