    7 Rem mag brass?

    What's needed for reloading?

    Any specific manual you recomend? I will be loading along side my dad with his 7mm Rem Mag. He hasn't loaded recently but did some a few (20ish) years back. My brother will also be reloading for his 300. The idea is to split the cost of the equiptment.
