[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2348911, member: 10755"] I lucked out and purchased 200 pieces of 7STW Remington brass the same week I re-chambered the barrel, started as a 7RM. They actually had 500 pieces in stock in 100 count bags, paid $165AUD per 100, which is cheap here in Australia. Didn’t want to be greedy and watched as those 300 went down to zero in only a few weeks. Should’ve bought more, but 200 will last the life of the barrel anyway. If I was not able to get 7STW brass, I would search for 8RM brass, if no joy there, I would get 375H&H brass and run it through the STW die and fireform. I do this for 375 Weatherby, 340 and 300. One note doing this on 2.850” brass, it WILL shrink in neck length. This poses no issue for function, but will alter COL. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
