[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 252682, member: 4191"] Dave, I don't think you could use a smaller caliber bushing style - neck sizing die to neck size a larger caliber case. The smaller neck diameter reamed into the sliding sleeve from the smaller caliber sleeve would prevent the larger diameter case neck from fully engaging the sleeve. Try to chamber one of your 338 Edge cases into the sliding sleeve of your 7mm RUM die. I'm virtually certain the 338 caliber case neck won't slide through the 7mm-sized neck reamed into the 7mm RUM sleeve. So this only works one way to my knowledge. If you have the bushing style neck sizing die and sliding sleeve for the larger caliber, you can use that die and sleeve for smaller caliber cases with the same body taper and shoulder angle. Just need to install the proper sized neck bushing. But this won't work the other way around. I'd try it for you but I only have the 338 RUM die and sleeve. [/QUOTE]
