My Shiloh built in 2022 will chamber JBA 405 brass run through a 40-70 straight die using .409 bullets no neck turn with a 0.065 rim. Maybe they have two reemers.

Thanks for all the offers but turns out the deal fell through on the .40-70 Shiloh but I have now found one in .40-65 that I am buying instead. Time to go down another rabbit hole!

As compared to the 40-70SS
You will find the 40-65 to be "like falling off a log"
easy to find good loads for, Starline ready made brass. 
or form from 45-70 brass. Cheap dies.
I know....

Yes.
Those were the days before aging bodies, eyesight, etc
Now, I shoot with scope on my rifle and off a portable bench.
But I did have another good string that way with my 38-50RH/359 gr DDEPP
at Lodi 500yds a 99-3 again in 2025.
