[QUOTE="Weaselthis, post: 442098, member: 19417"] Thanks, Nate, thanks for taking the time to reply and no offense taken at all. I appreciate the insight & constructive criticism. If you can't learn anything new, then you're DONE and ya might as well eat the end of your shotgun and see what's next in store! LOL btw, I read your article on the 7mm Practical front to back. Your comments and those of Broz were wholly instrumental in my decision to do this project. You guys offered up great stuff there. Thanks. I won't be making a 7mm Practical, but am getting a 7/300, so I ASSUME the shoulder angle w/ still be 25 degrees of the parent 300WM. Yeah, it was dumb not to use lube on the first 6. I normally neck size w/ graphite INSIDE the necks to ease it over the expander ball. Going down from .308 to .284 is a bit of a push. AND, if I'd been thinking right, I wouldn't have annealed first. So, that lesson is learned. Your comment about running the case too far in the die seemed to make sense to me, BUT I didn't do it at the time cuz I thought I would need to make **** sure the neck was 7mm all the way to the shoulder and not leave any .308 neck diameter unsized. DOhhh.....Another lesson done. Thanks. In your article, you mention using regular 7RM neck & seating dies. What die would you use IF the need arose for a FLS, or is that never done w/ this round? Like you say, I need to get edumecated some more. 25 yrs. of sizin' 'em, stuffin' 'em, & shootin' 'em ain't gonna make when the wildcats are involved. It's a learning curve and a journey I look forward to taking. Made up my mind to get stubborn and get knowed up some. I appreciate any and comments and help you and others on this forum have to offer. Take care. [/QUOTE]
