Hi, any one who shoot 7 mm rm, how many reload do you get out of the brass?

I anneal at about 4 reloads and shoot them low speed and get on average about 6-10 reloads on Winchester cases.

I keep reloading my brass till I notice cracks on the case. Specifically near the base of the shell. I've reloaded my remington brass over 10 times and only recently noticed small hair line fractures. When I see them, I dispose of them immediately.

I go to the range and everybody tells me this and that. As yet, I haven't had any major problems.

It depends on how close your Resizing Die and your chamber dimensions happen to be. Long ago I once got 33 reloads on 3-7mmRemMag cases using SAFE MAX Loads of IMR-4831 and 150gr Nosler Solid Base Bullets. If I'd "annealed properly"(which I did not do), it is no telling how long those would have continued shooting.

But, if the Dies and Chamber just happen not to match-up real well, you might not get many shots at all.

P-FLRing works the best for me to attain the longest Case Life.

I set my 7mag brass up to headspace on the shoulder. I then normally load around 6-7 times with at least one annealing.

I usually shoot 5-7 times before annealing . I also set back shoulder .002" when reloading and I'm in the

upper end of pressure range NOT MAX just a few grains under on many of my reloads .

As for overall brass life ; I've got better than #35 reloads on some older brass of various head-stamps .

Bumping that shoulder sparingly or spacing on it saves brass BIG TIME !. Neck size set shoulder back life

of brass is really good !.

I just bump my shoulder .003/.004 and I use a thingy to do-it

I"m shooting max loads out of my 7mm STW, it's just a lengthened out 7 mag. 25+ loads and counting with Remington brass. I PFL resize, and just barely touch the shoulder each time.
