[QUOTE="Magnus777, post: 2023382, member: 40688"] That answers my question, as well. Just started reloading early last year, after many years of shooting, and believe I have a pretty good grasp of the fundamentals by now...well enough to produce very good results with the handful of cartridges I use. But I've had a burning desire for some time now to work on a special project. Ordered up 100 cases from Gunwerks awhile ago, and have been mulling over how to proceed, but just couldn't wrap my mind around how to get the desired result. I'm going for a ground up rifle build, you see, and will need dimensions for a reamer. But I've been working from the assumption that I had to start with the 7lrm brass! Been worrying over how to keep the shoulder angle and neck junction at the proper dimensions. Never entered my mind to look at the blueprint of the parent case! Now I see the print for the 375 Ruger, seems it's setting at 30 degrees from the start! Is that correct? So I just need a bushing die set for the 375, with a set of bushings of appropriate size, and I can churn out brass until I'm swimming in it! Am I right? Sorry, not intending to hijack this thread. And please overlook my +10 enthusiasm... A little excited here! But I figured my project goes along with the subject matter, which is working over the 375Ruger case. Beauty! Thanks guys! [/QUOTE]
