[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 330743, member: 2011"] Late up date, Drawing the 7mm to 277 was a bust. 0.007 is just too much. Gave up on the idea and gave the reducing die to a bullet maker to keep me from dabbling with it again. However, I have purchased a lathe and ordered a first version jacket core reamer (what's the odds of the first design working?:rolleyes:) as first the next step in development of a bullet jacket that will hold up to tough bore configurations and still give good LR terminal performance with a decent BC. Received a PM from Azshooter that indicates I'm headed in the right direction. I just wish I knew whether I was on the pavement or out in the sage brush.:D [/QUOTE]
