[QUOTE="kraky, post: 127696, member: 180"] The short mag cases are pretty thick and tough. You can get alot more "spring back" after sizing than the good old 30-06 or 308. Be aware of this. I'd recomend having the stoney point headspace bushing kit as a great helper for reloading. The 7 wsm I reloaded for had such thick necks because it was factory cases with crimping marks I had really really tight case mouth dimensions after resizing. (Like .276"). I plunged them over the expander ball a couple of times and they stay at .280...but still seat the bullet hard. Just be aware that you are dealing with a "tougher" case than most people are used to and look for dimensions that might not be totally expected. [/QUOTE]
