I have some will get back to you
They will have plain base as for Berthier rifle. NOT the ring relief base type designed for the Lebel tube magazine rifle.
May have a spare set of dies

Sorry the Lebel cases that I have spare are not good enough.

Thanks for looking. Few places have listed them but none seem to have stock.

Starting to explore Czech Republic where PPU made but not sure about export yet.

PPU is Serbian I think, no CR kvalitat

...

Anyway, why dont you buy some simply from France ?

My search didn't find those. Although one does not seem to supply other than RFD, other France only. Will see how I get on.

?? Sry but I dont understand what you mean. None of the 3 above offers are "reserved" for RFD and they are for sale to anybody who has a shooting Licence. I asked them if they can ship to a UK FAC holder.

Have been in contact and they will not ship outside France. Seemed to suggest that they could be sent to somebody in France and can be exported personally.
Have been told something about checking out via RFD on leaving France.

SO STILL looking for some Lebel 8x50R

Thanks, Tim

I thought we were still in the EU?

May not now be relevant but a couple of years ago I was in York Guns buying S&B 8x57 ammo for my Mauser when the guy asked if I knew anyone that wanted any French 8mm as they had hundreds and had never sold any, might be worth a call.
