    Does anyone have any 7mm mauser and 7.5 French brass? I just came into both a Mas36/51 and a FN49 in 7mm.

    Lmk what your looking for.

    I may have a 7x57 form and trim die I would give you if you want to make 7mm out of 30-06. They will work fine in Dieudonne Saive's baby.

    Also, I used .308 cases and .308 bullets for years in my take home Model 36 with good accuracy and no problems using IMR 4895 powder.

    After the first time a .308 case is fired, it will fill the chamber and bulge a little at the base. From then on, you only neck size the brass by backing out your .308 size die and use a Lee FCD crimp die to crimp the shorter case neck. If you have too, grind down the bottom of the collet sleeve to bring down the crimp.

    Enjoy, they are both great shooting guns.

    Didn’t know you could do that, Id still prefer purpose built brass but I’ll have to give it a try. Thanks!

    Looking for 54r brass, boxer preferred, but can work with berdan primed cases. PM me what you are looking to trade them for. Can meet FTF AGC or a reasonable distance in the middle from Columbia.

    I’ve got a few reloading books for trade. My biggest need is some small rifle primers (mag or standard). I need like 400 of them but open to anything I can use.

    Will trade 3lbs (3 x 1) of brand new Ramshot Enforcer Smokeless Handgun powder for large pistol primers, 45LC brass, or powder better suited to cowboy action loads using LRNFP bullets.

    I have ~250 lbs of pure lead from cut keel blocks, and other misc sources. Want to trade 1:1 for WW or range scrap hardness (10-12 bhn) hardness lead. Can consider other lead (linotype, foundry, etc.). Based in Columbia, shoot at AGC, can FTF anywhere in a reasonable vicinity for both.

    Just curious why you don’t alloy it yourself? Grab 80lbs of Linotype from Brickman301 and turn that 250lbs pure into ~330lbs Lyman #2

    If you’re looking for anything else in trade, I’d be happy to discuss grabbing the pure from you and alloy it

    Inflation and cost of living got me penny pinching right now :) Just making do on what i got. Id be happy to barter for some linotype for the pure lead so I can alloy it.

    Not needing anything in particular, but primers and powder are always something I am willing to consider.
