[QUOTE="squeeeeze, post: 2036536, member: 34065"] If you’ve got a bullet puller style (Non Kinetic) that you put in your press, you can possibly just pull the bullet partially out and avoid all the other steps. Pull long and seat to COAL needed. I’ve done this with bullets I’ve loaded that were seated too deep. I have a 7WSM as well and when brass was hard to get a few years ago I just bought boxes of the Federal blue box 150grn soft point for the brass. I used the ammo for break in new barrel and some for fowlers. That gave me fire formed brass. The rest I just pulled the bullets and used the brass as new unfired with my load. The reason I say “possibly” pull the bullets is because my Federal SP’s were like the danged bullets were glued in there. It took so much pressure that when they broke loose they popped out like pulling a tooth and BAM. I personally wouldn’t reuse the powder but that’s just me. But, if it makes it go boom it’s up to you. [/QUOTE]
