[QUOTE="Magnus777, post: 2023764, member: 40688"] Thanks for adding to the discussion! Some very good points. I looked for such a die, but it seemed the only folks that had a die for the 7LRM was Gunwerks...figured because it was a proprietary cartridge. The die is Hornady, and I keep reading how it's crap. Was looking at having a custom die made, but then I'd need a reamer print, and or three fired cases. Finally decided to stop chasing my tail and just ask for some help. Where do you reckon has one? 3K with the 170's is in line with what I was thinking, and is the goal. Also have 200 or so Matrix 166's, and even about 100 190gr to play with that I bought from a group member some years back! What decided me on going this route with the case was the extra capacity. Figured it would allow reaching 3K at a lope rather than a run...or rather, get there without super high pressure, and have room to spare. That, and the long necks should allow for decent barrel life. [/QUOTE]
