    Imperial sizing wax is real good, when you need to buy more. A tin costs about $18 to $30 and lasts for several thousand rounds. One little finger swipe will do several cases, and if you lube up...

    As above for reloading. You can’t anneal them so life expectancy is about 5 cycles before necks start to crack IME.

    No difference. I have loaded them in 300WM and 7mmRM in exactly the same way I load "normal" brass. Just keep an eye on the condition of the cases as I have heard that the nickle can crack/peel off...

    Nope! Just reload them as normal with the normal amount of case lube. The nickelled cases are slightly 'slipperyer' than regular brass but still need lube.

    Thanks RMM - the 2217 results you put up on Danny B's thread were pretty impressive. If I change powders I was thinking a 2217 might be a better option for a 22" barrel as is a bit faster than 2225....

    RL 26 just under max with the 175 gr LRAB shoots well and at about 2900 fps out of a 24 inch barrel.

    Yes, I believe it works very well but it shags with neck tension in achieving straightness. Consistant repeatable neck tension is one of the biggies for accuracy. Again, depending upon your end...

    Rated M for Magnum liked post by Bagheera On thread : What in the world?
    My vote is that the case was sized too short and separated, then under inertia jammed forward into the shoulder. I dont think pressure of gas outside the case could collapse it into dimples because...

    My uncle was a Tahr culler in the 1960's. The best rifle calibre he used was a 7x57, very similar to the 7mm08 and the best ammo was Dominion from CIL in Canada. The 139 'Western' open point...

    That was kind of the point of my post, it may have came across wrong. What I have found is you will gain about 50fps maybe a little more. But if you work your load in winter you may strike pressure...
