    Runamuk indeed thanks for your help! Boiler, The short of it is- shortening the case Series of form dies Hydro form. After all that its fire form time. We had to scab together a set of of dies and they are far from optimal. That said the rifles are shooting great! Once we got the velocity...

    New rig 7mmRM or 7WSM

    Ballistic twins. No advantage either way. I had both at one time. Still have the RM. OP, considering you have a L/A and dies for the RM, I would stay the course with the RM. You won't be disappointed.

    223 AI small base die

    Anybody make one? I recently re barreled both of my AI's and brass that was fired in the other bbls will not chamber after FL sizing. Its all at the base. I'd hate to have to scrap 500+ pcs of formed Lapua brass. Yes, the bbls that I chambered (new ones) have no trouble with brass...
