[QUOTE="can1010, post: 3063378, member: 43193"] it is possible and not that hard. cut brass slightly longer than needed and form new neck and shoulder with a 300saum die, easier to form with the 30 degree shoulder then finish by fireforming. your biggest problem is brass thickness and the amount of neck turning needed and the continuing donut that will need constant reaming. blowing out the web to WSM dia. is no problem, I have been using SAUM brass in 6.8W and different wildcats since the beginning, the western case is just a short WSM case. the difference is about .005 and has its advantage of eliminating the clicker issues that can sometimes be a problem. also don't forget the annealing after the forming and again after the fireforming but before the sizing.
