    As others have stated. Expand to 7mm, load up and go about your normal business.
    When I first fired my necked up 6.5/284 brass in my 284 subsequent loadings of the formed brass showed virtually no change over the first firing.
    If you're worried about some change after the first firing just do a quick zero check on the 2nd loading.

    I have .285" diameter cast bullets that I sell to a couple of guys to fire form their cases if you are interested, Seems a waste to shoot them into the ground
    when they are perfectly good for small game, Trail boss will be ok to blow the cases out it has a very quick pressure spike on ignition .
