Re: 30-30 30-06 and 7mm mag reloading.
      06/28/08 03:17 PM

I currently reload for the -06, 7MM Mag, 30-30, & 270. What I have learned is that the 270/-06 are the easiest to reload for. Lots of recipes to be found, plus these calibers seem to be easier on the brass than the 7Mag. My 7 mag requires partial full length re-sizing every time I reload them. My 270, -06, and 30-30 only need neck sizing for at least 5 reloads.

When you first start re-loading for the 7 mag, after re-sizing the brass-and BEFORE adding powder and bullet-check to make sure that your re-sized brass will fit the chamber, and that the bolt will close. I found out the hard way after loading some brass that several needed to have the shoulder pushed back further than my dies were set up for. It's lots of fun pulling bullets to re-size brass. Not to mention attempting to work primed brass is dangerous! I was afraid to try and press the primer out for fear of one going off so I sprayed them with WD-40 and let them soak, then pressed them out, and then re-worked my brass.
