[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 1844699, member: 101791"] If you are looking at 300 Win Mag brass and 7mm Rem Mag brass. You can develop them from 338 Win Mag, 264 Win Mag, 7mm Rem Mag, and 300 Win Mag brass. Have to be full length size (LUBE YOUR CASES) to what ever case you are trying to make. Trim to length, and anneal them. Fire form them with reduce powder load. Again check lengths and cut neck thickness. A second annealing wouldn't be bad either. Check case weight after completing the resizing process. Your head spacing is on the belt not on the shoulder area. That the neat part of that. The other THING is you have to pay attention to which case you are doing what with. EXAMPLE: I load for 3 308 Nor. Mag rifles and the brass is expensive to buy 308 nor mag case. I generally change convert 300 Win Mag case to the 308 Nor Mag case. I load for 4 25/06 rifles at times. They all chamber differently. So I use different head stamp case for the different rifles. So I use a combination of 25/06, 270, 30/06 to achieve it. One different manufacture of case to get the job done. SSS [/QUOTE]
