Using 7mm Rem cases for 7mm Weatherby

[gmoose]

When I run 7mm rem cases through my 7mm weatherby die the cases come out about .050 short. will they be ok to reload and shoot in my weatherby, thanks

The two 7mm cases are very close to the same body length but the Weatherby has a longer neck
(.049) so if you fire form the Remington brass in the Weatherby it should still be fine with the shorter neck.

It is worth a try. you may have to crimp the necks in to a cannelured bullet to get the best performance.

Just my opinion

It is the neck of the Rem 7mm case that is short. The rest of the Rem 7mm case is identical to 7mm weatherby after running through weatherby full length die. One of the reasons for hand loading is saving money. The 7mm Rem once fired cases are free from a neighbor, buying 7mm weatherby cost $2.00 each, the reason for using Rem 7mm cases. I don't see a problem, but I'm not an expert that's why I'm asking for help, thanks

it should fire alright, but suspect your going to see a lot more than .049" loss in the neck length. Your going to be moving a lot of brass around in the shoulder area, but it's worth the try. I think your going to see something like.075" or more, plus some erosion in the neck area from the flame path.

Just country, maybe you would share where you can buy brass at that price as I have searched for hours and cannot find weatherby brass less than 2.00 each or more. Thanks
