300wm bras from scratch

[Hammer101st]

My girlfriend is a in home nurse and one of her clients is a 78 year old veteran and the borough he lives in is givin him all kind of crap and even fined him money over his property regardless of his age they wont leave him alone so i went to his house did some yard work got the house and yard lookin decent now he wont leave me alone on how he can repay me i told him was fine its a favor from one veteran to another. But to no avail he keeps after me so i caved and asked what do you have? He took me to his den and low and behold a gold mine of reloading component's but no powder (darn it anyways) but i kept lookin through 4 different safes full of rifles and scopes and everything else then found a whole pile of unformed wildcat head stamped H&H brass i said bingo i will take this but first i have to see how to form it. So what would be the process of forming it to 7mm rm and 300WM is it as simple as running through a die and trim or is there more to it than that. (sorry for the long winded story but hey maybe someone who reads this will reach out and help an old veteran)

If he has the basic brass maybe he knows how to form it . He sure couldn't use it as it is, just a thought. Other than running through the die you want to make it to i have no Idea but maybe try one piece.

His lungs were scard years ago from a huey accident in vietnam sucked in alot of hot air from the fuel fire recovered put back in the jungle a month later he took 2 rounds to the chest recovered from that stayed over ther became an armorer. He can say about three or four words before he is winded so i try not to make him talk much but he had to be tough SOB in his days
