264 Win Mag Brass from 7Mm Rem Mag?

[Clackamas Jack]

How hard would it be to make 264 Win Mag brass with a full sizing die with 7mm Remington Mag brass? Anything I would need to be worried about?

 

[turkeyrun]

Nope

Lube, size, trim


I have some 7mm Rem Mag brass. Some of it may not have 7mm headstamp. If you need brass

I give it a shot of spray lube up inside the the die as well and let it dry. One stroke and trim to 2.490

Any concerns with neck thickness?

No it's never been an issue for me. Made 80 of them for a friend a few years ago.

So to me it seems like 7 rem mag brass is generally easier to find, cheaper but not only I am able to potentially get ADG, Lapua and or Peterson brass unlike 264 Win Mag brass. It sounds like its the way to go.

Yes definitely, it's pretty plentiful especially compared to .264

I haven't seen ADG or Peterson in stock anywhere, and I am unfamiliar with Lapua even making that case.

I did score 200 new Norma cases not too long ago for just under a buck a pop. Up until that point I had been using 1xF Federal brass with good results.

8m curious to see how the 7mm RM and a few others fare once the 7 PRC becomes plentiful.

IF you use .300 Win Mag or larger , the neck thickness MAY be an issue.


I will see what I have, PO shipping adds a little.
