Does anyone have any 218 bee brass they would like to sell. Preferably not hornady but would be interested in any.

Steve, you might have better luck finding 25/20 or even 32/20 brass, if I’m correct these were far more popular calibers. It might cost you a Redding conversion die to avoid ruining too much expensive brass but could let you accumulate a decent stock of components.

Well Hornady is making new brass and it is available most places now. I was hoping for some winchester brass.

I hadn’t realized Hornady 218 brass was actually available. Good news. Maybe they’ll resume making some .405 WCF cased as well!
