[QUOTE="Badgerclaw, post: 1618412, member: 101780"] I was actually surprised to find I am getting about 6 firings out of my brass as well. My problem after 6 fireings wasn't the primer pockets though, it was a doughnut in the neck. hoping to keep this thread alive because the 180 eldm's do seem to be an awesome bullet and the 28 nosler, an awesome cartridge. The one thing I've found sense my last post on here, unless your adding a lot of extra freebore, don't expect too hit extremely high velocities (3150 -3200 fps) with the heavy 7mm bullets, without losing some accuracy and being hard on brass. I've figured out that if I just accept the cartridge for what it is, a bench rest accurate magnum, and settle with the accuracy node instead of trying to push the limits, I'll be happier, and get better barrel life. The accuracy node in my rifle with the ELDM is between 3080 -3100 fps [/QUOTE]
