[QUOTE="edmedm, post: 1163890, member: 71250"] I finally received sample pieces of 7mm Mauser (7x57) brass and successfully ran a piece through the die. The piece on the left went through the sizer, the one on the right as-fired. Pre/post sizing measurements showed small dimensional changes, as would be expected for the proper die. [IMG]http://i376.photobucket.com/albums/oo208/edmc4/DSCF4935_zpsrmsfulno.jpg[/IMG] Another interesting piece of information was available on one of the pieces of brass. As can be seen, the piece with R-P headstamp is identified "7 mm (7x57)", further evidence that the 7mm Mauser/7x57 was simply called "7mm" at one time.
