Damn, I must have been having a couple of bad hair days!

I would have sworn that the original post had to do with using Remington manufactured .270 Weatherby Magnum brass as compared to brass manufactured by Weatherby (Norma).

S40,
remington brass used to pimp out it's brass line to everyone....


the "safest" way to get to the 270 wbby case is to start with with some hornady mag basic... and trim, then form...

One BIG WORD of caution: All brass is not the same. I bought a bunch of Federal nickel brass for my 7mm Weatherby at an incredible price. When i went to load them, they wouldn't even come close to the case capacity of the Norma brass so my "factory load" equivalents were unworkable. jorge

I posted these questions on another forum without much response. Owning a 270 Weatherby Mag and in short supply of brass I did a little research and located a source of new Rem manufactured 7mm WBM brass and ordered 200 pcs. Big savings for me. The cases are similar in size to the 270 WBM and should be easy to form, but I have some questions to make sure I do it right.

Do I lube and run the brass through the 270 WBM full length die and prep?

Should I run it through the full length die with out the expander ball?

All advice appreciated.

Steve,

Not to get obstinate or anything but Quarter round is just trying to make sure that he takes the 7MM WEATHERBY brass manufactured by Remington and does the correct steps to function as 270 WEATHERBY brass. It appears that you have understood him to say he bought 270 Weatherby brass from Remington...in which case the dimesions would be the same...a 270 Weatherby case is a 270 Weatherby case.
