Cartridge : 7 mm B.R. Rem.
Bullet : .284, 175, Hornady RN 2855
Useable Case Capaci: 33.500 grain H2O = 2.175 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 2.375 inch = 60.33 mm

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 55000 psi, or 379 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 107 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !

90 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 80%. These powders have been skipped.

wow thank you very much!! who knew that such a small round could pack such hit as this!!

You're welcome. I'm happy to help.

Efficiency goes a long way, and the BR cases are at the top of the efficiency heap.

wow thank you very much!! who knew that such a small round could pack such hit as this!!

They have been killing steel rams for many years

Like anything else, where theres a will theres a way. Its all in how bad you want it. You could be good at making bullets

well could you do just one last one more for me? 7mm BR,, 100gr sierra hp ? please that way I'll have both ends of the spectrum covered..!! Thanks Rusty

Years ago Herter's sold dies to bump up 125gr 7.35 Carcano bullets (.299-.300") to .308.

A vendor on another board makes swaging dies, it became popular to use cartridge casings for bullet jackets. You could swage down a 25 Auto casing to your target diameter.

http://castboolits.gunloads.com/forumdisplay.php?114-BT-Sniper

We're not talking bench rest accuracy here with either of these options.

 

[geo.ulrich]

you could draw 30 caliber jackets down and pinch trim to what ever length for whatever weight wished for. and still get b.r. accuracy, but why do more work..

 

[Zero333]

well could you do just one last one more for me? 7mm BR,, 100gr sierra hp ? please that way I'll have both ends of the spectrum covered..!! Thanks Rusty

You can ask me as much as you like. I love playing with QL !

You can ask me as much as you like. I love playing with QL !

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 55000 psi, or 379 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 107 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.

I actually had to try putting 36grains in that 7MM br case and to my amazment it actually fit.. thanks for the information it really opened my eyes, I compared it to load data.com and across the board they were 2-3 grains less than what QL came up with..... as a side note I put in a bank loan aplication for 20,000 dollars to fund my venture in bullet making... all I have to do is wait on the bank to say yes or no

 

[Rdlningcltchdmpr]

I wouldn't think so because some of the Nosler Partition bullets have an open base to the rear core. Havent used the good old Partitions in quite a few years but I assume not much has changed.

Of course Nosler may use a different core alloy in the rear to resist heat better...not sure on that.

Partitions have a partition os you won't blow the lead core out the front.

Yes I am well aware of where the bullet's name comes from. The question was would it "melt" the core.

 

[Zero333]

I'm a little lost on the velocity's shown with a straight 7 br with a 100 gr. 7 1/2 ogive I am getting at 3300 f.p.s. with h4198 and no tight cases or pressures and a 23" barrel

The Quickload data is a below max and it's just a guide.

I see thanks

Well 20k should get you into 22,6mm,6.5 mm, 7mm and 30 cal in dies and still have money for cores and jackets

 

[crustyrusty]

yeas I thinks so to but I want to address the 25 cal, 6.5, 6.8, 7mm , and 308 and the 375 bore cause between my brother and I thats what we shoot the most of... of all of the bullets listed the 25 cal and 7mm is the most shot in our family,,, the rest are occasional shooters

 

[geo.ulrich]

caliber really won't affect the price

 

[Dusty Stevens]

caliber really won't affect the price

Except the return on investment. Can you imagine trying to sell a custom 6.8 bullet?

 

[geo.ulrich]

Dusty, yes it always amazes me when people want to go down the road with out seeing whats available jacket wise. its one thing for me to mess around after all dies don't cost me, but start adding draw dies and pinch trim dies just to a die set and things get pricey pretty fast not to mention all the extra work involved.

 

[crustyrusty]

ok mr ulrich how much money to set up dies to cover 78gr bullets thru 175gr in 7mm alone? that will give me an idea of how much capital other caliber lines to add will cost.. all of these bullets probably will be flat base unless you have a better idea?
