[QUOTE="bedrok, post: 1730615, member: 25202"] I don’t want to poop in anyone’s punch bowl here but from my experience w win. 7MMWSM brass I can about guarantee that no amount of sorting or prepping will get you a good group. My 7MMWSM is a kimber and it was the guy at the kimber factory who warned me win brass was junk. After having good luck with it since the 70s I had to try. I did everything I could (sorted for weight,turned the necks, resized to .001 under, then tried neck only, etc.) to get the stuff to shoot and it was horrible. Federal is miles better but the clear winner was Norma .300 necked down and fire formed. With the Kimber factory barrel, it was 5/8” to 3/4" with Norma, 3" to 4” with Winchester. With a new Pacnor barrel the Norma shoots under 1/2”, over 50% under 3/8”. I tried the Winchester again with the pacnor and can’t remember exact group size but it was still horrible. [/QUOTE]
