Fireforming 7 STW brass from 300 HH

A lot of people with this caliber are often hunting for brass. I thought I'd post the link to a thread I started a little while back on fire forming STW brass out of 300 HH brass.

Let me know if I've missed anything or if you have any questions. Been using for about 3-4 reloads so far with good luck.

Bringing back to life from page 7.

To update, I now use Italian bread crumbs and 10.0gr Red dot. 6.0gr was doing ok, but 10.0 gr ignites much more uniformly every time.

Got 4x firings on my first 50 before the pockets started loosening. On my second batch of 50 now. Good accuracy from the 300 HH Norma stuff.

Had a guy PM me about the thread on how to do this so I bumped it back up to page 1 for others that may be in the same boat.
