These cases can also be used to make 32 Miller Shorts. Too many choices..lol. The 7mm TCU got me thinking about a 7 BR (for which I have cases left over from shooting handgun silhouette). Anyone have or may an 1885 Rimless extractor? I know they made one for the 30/06 1885s they built but have never seen one. I had a #1 re-chambered for 7mm International Rimmed - basically a 30-30 necked down - long neck retained.

	Is there a readily supply of 5.6x50r brass at a reasonable price available?

	Here's something like the 300 blackout, it's a 8.15 x 24r If this works, here's a pic, 38 special, into a 30 luger die, trimmed, fireformed. I have a Buchel target pistol in this caliber made in 1908, LD1

I am lucky enough to have several hundred RWS cases and some loaded ammo. Plus I can buy Sellior and Bellot cases without any issues. Yet something as straight forward as 30 40 Krag are hard to find.

Whilst I have 32 20 brass, 300 Blackout is easier to get from my local gun shop and less expensive!

	I am a bit slow at times and I only realised that I can make a rimmed 300 Blackout. Tried a .357 mag case as the initial exercise, yes the case is too short but as proof of concept it is fine. attached is a picture of a 5.6 x 50R, .357 Maximum, 357 Mag run in to the FL die and a 300 Case for interest.

	What about running in the reamer longer and making a 300 blk rimmed magnum. Well a 30-30 Wesson type case from the 357 max cases.
