I am looking for some reloading dies for a British 8 bore 3 1/2" chamber and for 10 bore pinfire.

There are for British double rifles and not shotguns (thought I would add this as shotgun reloading is different than for rifle)

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Please PM or email at channelsurfer911@hotmail.com

Thanks

I believe that they can both be reloaded fairly easily without dies, it would be hard enough to find empty cases, and depending on the type of cases you have, will determine what, if anything is required. For instance, I reload 12 gauge 2 1/2" shells, paper, plastic, and brass without a machine or dies, for crimping of plastic and paper I use a roll crimper, you use on a drill/drill press. I have various reloaders for the 12 Ga. but reload by hand for safety because of the black powder.
 
Thanks Ben, I believe I can get brass cases, the problem is seating and crimping in bullets and resizing the mouth to hold the bullets. I would think a sizer would be required for the mouth area at least.
 
The subject of PF cases came up on British Militaria Forums. IIRC It was said they are being made in France.
 
If you can get the proper cases, i would not be sizing them unless I absolutely had to, they are to valuable to "work" the brass. If using Black Powder, use heavy card wad that is a tight fit over powder, felt or fibre over that, seat bullet in case, seal with a bead around bullet of hot glue or some such, enjoy!!
