I ordered 80 rounds through palmetto, thank you Jim for the link. Now I'm contemplating ordering the hornady die set from midway, seeing as how the get loaded rebate is still going on through 2014. 100 bullets for free! Then to find some lil gun...dang, my fun money is dissapearing rather quickly!

I wouldn't piddle around if you find a set of dies right now. Snatch them up.
As for powder...... Well. We are all in that boat.

Palmetto State Armory usually has good prices - http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/catalog/product/view/id/1182/

I went to 10 Ring on Jones Rd. today, they have bullets in stock for reloading.... not the ones I was looking for, but they had some of the .452 in a few different weights.

I also ordered 4 boxes from PSA. That's a pretty good deal!

The Hornady 225 gr FTX work well in the 450BM. Others have loaded form 180 to 300 gr with 260gr (the Remington version weight) being popular. Occasionally, Midway will sell blems (blemished bullets) that are .452 and either 250 or 225 gr, sometimes with different colored tips. They appear identical to the Hornady FTX's, except for the color of the tip, and I have reloaded several with no discernible difference from my reloads with the OEM bullets. I grab up a couple of boxes, usually at about 50% of list price for the originals, whenever they come up. You can check Midway by searching for blemished bullets. There are none on their website at present.

Got that right, the 450b is selling like Hot Cakes now, meaning there are going to be spot shortages on 450 accessories..

Finally had a chance to shoot last night. I knew this thing would be accurate, but wasn't expecting to cut one hole groups at 100 right out of the gate. Shot a 6" steel plate at 200y, first shot...ting! The bullet almost went through the 1/2 steel at 200. Unbelievable! I'm in love....

Welcome to my addiction!
