Howdy fellas,

I’m looking for a set of dies for the French m1892 in 8mm French ordnance (*often called 8mm Lebel revolver, incorrectly)

I can’t find any in stock online in the country, only place I see them is on Graf & sons website, but they require a 250$ usd minimum order to ship up north plus whatever else for shipping fees etc.


Any talented members able to find a lead or know who can order them in?


Or if enough people are interested put in a group order for a batch of these if enough interest.

Thanks in advance!
 
I am looking for those dies too, Grafs don't want to ship Hornady dies to Canada, they say Hornady prevent them to do so in their reseller contracts....
Nobody has them in stock in canada.

Those Lee dies are 8x50 Lebel rifle cartridge. OP is looking for 8mm French revolver, unless I misunderstood.

Sure they had them awhile ago. I just checked and not there. Best bet for OP is to order from Higginsons. They got me Hornady 30 Herrett dies in under a month. Anything odd usually has to be ordered in and wait for them to show up.
 
For those who don't know the name, C-H Tool & Die is semi-custom maker of reloading dies. They have a library of thousands of reamers (yes, including 8mm Lebel Revolver), and will make you whatever set you want and send them to any country not embargoed by the US government. Price is naturally higher than an off-the-shelf set.

I didn't see reamers on their website. And they have no issues shipping to Canada?
