Necking down question?

Looking at a new project of necking down 338 Rem Ultra mag to 7mm. Want to neck down in 3 steps using bushing dies. Thought I could use 300 and 7 Ultra bushing dies, but I think I may not be able to size the neck far enough down before the dies bottom out on the shorter 338 rum case. Thought of using a 300 RSAUM neck bushing die and use different size bushings. Eventually I will send cases to Redding and have dies made but in the mean time I need to have a few rounds to get some fired cases. Any help is appreciated.

IMHO using bushing dies is not the best way to neck down, instead buy some cheap Plano FL sizing dies in 300 then 7mm, reason is these dies size the entire neck and bushing dies don't.
