Ill look for some 40 or 10mm dies. Ive read you can use 30-30 or 41mag brass ill keep a eye out for .41 remington> I tried a ejector housing from a new model blackhawk just a touch to short. The Herters where made by Saur & son as was Hawes and i found the one for a hawes on Numrick. Think ill take a chance its the same or close. Numrick also showed a 357mag cylinder or a Herters. I would want to do another cylinder and keep the .401 for sure. The sight elevator screw is also missing it looks as if the underside of srewhead would have notches for clicks as you turned it.

Right side of barrel: HERTERS SINGLE
.401 CALIBRE

Left side: HERTER'S WASECA MINN. USA
MADE IN WESTERN GERMANY

marked with a 65 i beleive is the year.
