Anyone have any lines on some 7x57 brass? Mine are starting to split and all my sources are sold out. Found some loaded Federal @ 60 bucks a box plus shipping! . No thanks!

Sorry, I can't help you on locating any brass, but something I've started doing that has really softened up my necks is annealing. Started seeing a fair amount of split necks from my .22-250 brass and decided to try it. So far it seems like it's breathed some life into my cases, haven't seen any splits yet from that same batch.

anneal and try a collet sizing die it is a neck size only
you don't put as much stress on the brass just pushing the neck back around the mandrill
I looked and can not find any
you can make it from 270 or 30-06 but it is a bit of a process

I have a ton of it laying around here somewhere. Remind me after deer season and I'll look to see how much I have.
