    The light one was fine in an eyeball jiggly kind of a way

    Plus the wingman can be formed from two parent cases one just requires alot more steps in the forming process! The one we basing it of is simple neck down and fireform through a billet chamber!!!

    If Mr kiwi Greg would be kind enough to post the capacity of the 7 375r? as all my cases went with the reamer

    To the shoulder line with 2225 since you have it an water as well?

    I'll pop home for lunch and get the 7mm wingman will be good to see

    Here it is gave the misses the call

    Capacity
    Us869. . . . ... .90.2
    2225... . . . . . . 83.5
    Water . . . . ...91.8

    This was over 3 cases and average it was hard to see when at shoulder level and I was on the empty side. It's a size form an load case, not the 4 neck downs inside ream out side turn and anneal I found with the 7 375r case and not Hornady brass either

    Will be good to compare as they are similar but not the same

    Its a simple form so anyone can do it... should be possible to form as you shoot if wanted...
    I think the fact that forming simplicity, top end brass and type s dies are possible will make the 7-375 obsolite

    A few possibilities with that as a parent case mr Abe.
    I have decided to be timid and go .280AI
    It will be easier as well. I doubt I would get a mag for the 93 to hold that case.
