    WC857 Powder for 7mm Rem Mag ... Yup, I'm *that guy* ?

    I doubt you could get enough WC857 in the case to get high pressure signs.

    Okay to share brass between 2 rifles?

    As previously stated, unless the chambers are cut by the same reamer consecutively and the headspace set the same, it usually does not work too well. What you end up doing is setting up to the smaller chamber, which is great for that chamber but sloppier for the larger chamber and it overworks...

    Making 7WSM brass from 270 WSM brass

    The 7WSM has a longer base to shoulder length than the 270WSM. You would have to neck way up and then neck down to create a false shoulder or neck up and jam the bullet hard into the lands to set headspace.

    Closing Bolt Problem.

    Shoot some factory ammo through the rifle and use that brass to develop your loads. Using some other "once fired" brass when you are new to reloading is introducing too many variables. The hard chambering could be caused by a multitude of reasons when using some other "once fired" brass.

    My necking down lesson

    With a bushing die you have the seam between the body die and bushing that is unsupported. It's looks nonexistent but it's there and that is where the donut forms. A regular FL die, to push the donut inside, and neck reaming it cut it out is the solution. Whenever sizing down use a regular FL...

    New MDT 6BR Mag doesn't work w/ 3 lug actions?

    Lug sitting at 8&4 o'clock would work better with the AW mags. Lug sittings 6 o'clock work better with centerfeed AICS mags.

    WC857 Powder for 7mm Rem Mag ... Yup, I'm *that guy* ?

    I used this powder in a 243Win with 115's. Charge weight was around 51grs with a magnum primer. Needed a loooong 29" barrel to get full burn (decent ES/SD) and decent velocities. Should work in your application with the heavies and a long barrel.

    Gunsmithing 6.5 CM barrel fitment dissapointment.

    Gas guns always more complicated to get to really shoot tight. If you want to consistently shoot 1/2MOA without much fuss..... you know what I'm going to say.... bolt action.

    Gunsmithing bend of the receiver rem 700

    That's no bueno. I would have words with that smith. If you're going to keep it, you'll mostly likely have to bed it. But I would wonder if the scope base holes line up.

    What to do with an old intermediate length Mauser action?

    Next to nothing. If you're going that route I would recommend the 7.5x55mm Swiss over the French.

    What to do with an old intermediate length Mauser action?

    Probably a good length for 284Win or 6.5-284Win or 6.5x55 Swede or improved.

    Bolt not picking up rounds from Magazine?

    If you're running a magazine without the front binder plate (2.95" COAL), you're going to have to notch your action feed ramp. The front binder plate limits the COAL to 2.88" which is the maximum length for an unmodified action. Under recoil the rounds will slowly creep forward and the bullet...
