Hey Guys,
I'm doing a 7mm/300wsm in several months and I was hoping to get some help on dies. So, with the 300wsm's shorter headspace would a redding 300 wsm bushing die with a 7mm bushing do the job for full length sizing? Would the regular 7wsm competition seater work fine? What problems will I run into with this? What are my better die options?
Thank you in advance,
Al
 
I'd recommend getting a one piece die made by any one of the custom die makers. Lee and Redding make them for sure. I think RCBS will as well, then too there's all the other folks like Niel Jones who make complete custom sets from fired cases. Personally, I'd prefer a one piece die.

If you have this made by a gunsmith who already has the reamer, they may have another customer who has that caliber rifle and could provide you with fired cases so you can get dies before you're old and gray (waiting till the rifle is done and firing your own). Consider that too.

In a pinch a bushing die could work I suppose.
 
Thank you 4Mesh, I think in the meantime I decided on a new plan. I am buying the reamer so I think I will try to get by until I can send some fired cases to someone for some custom dies.
Thank you,
Al
