The 7mm Remington Magnum
was introduced in 1962, and it's the most popular magnum rifle cartridge of all time. This cartridge is loaded to
52,000 cup, and its recoil is similar to shooting a 30-06 with heavy bullets. The recoil is much more managable
than most of the larger magnums, and this is a very flat shooting cartridge. It's easy to see why the 7mm
Remington Magnum is so popular. I have seen spectacular long range accuracy from shooters using 140 - 160 grain
bullets, and this cartridge does well with standard or magnum primers.
The main problem with handloading the 7mm Remington Magnum (like all belted magnum calibers) is case expansion
that occurs at the pressure ring "just above" the belt. Conventional resizing dies can't properly resize any
belted magnum case in this area, and they soon develop a slight "bulge" around the case (usually
after just 2 or 3 firings). When that happens, these cases will begin to stick in your chamber or they will fail
to chamber at all. This is a very common symptom when reloading any belted magnum caliber.
Handloading the 7mm Remington Magnum with our Belted Magnum Collet Resizing Die will increase the
life of your cases, and insure a perfect fit in your chamber.
"Finally a resizing die that works on belted magnum cases."
This unique collet resizing die
solves this common reloading problem and has several patented features. The top of the die serves as a case width
gauge to show when "complete" case resizing is required. This resizing die is used to eliminate the case
"bulge" after using your full length or neck sizing die. This die insures that your belted handloads will always
chamber properly. Now your cases are able to last for up to 20 firings, even when using hot loads.
This resizing die uses a collet that fits over the cartridge case, until it bottoms against the belt. The case is
then pressed into the sizing die. The collet allows your case to go farther into the
die where it only reduces the area "just above" the belt.
