Sounds like a dumn question but can you buy dies for the weatherby calibers? If memory serves me right i dont think you can. Was thinking about buying a .257 but I'll likely go to a 25-06 or a 243 otherwise.

Of course you can buy the dies, several companies make them.

Bought mine at WSS. Neck sizing dies and they also had full length there.

If dies weren't available for Weatherby rifles, Weatherby would probably only sell 1/3 of the number rifles that they do now. Who wants to pay that much for ammo?

I think I had a brain fart and got that confused with the 338 marlin express

the dies are about the same price any other in that class.
just lately there was real crunch on weatherby brass.
thats the problem with any 'oddball caliber', like the 338ME.
not that they are bad just subject to problems
