    Brass is hard to get but Norma 300SAUM is easily necked down and often doesn't need neck turning in a factory chamber. You can get Nosler Custom 7SAUM brass but is twice as expensive.

    Nope. Just get 300 Saum brass from workshop innovation and just full length size into 7 Saum dies and you are good to go.
    Ammunitions would be ultra hard to find and super expensive.

    will we ever see the return of remington 7mm saum brass? it was reasonably priced and was ok, It's rude that nosler gets norma to make 7mm saum brass and then whacks a ridiculous amount of markup... Why is all nosler shit so fricken expensive for what it is......(eg nosler BT, accubonds etc versus hornady SST)?

    I believe that Remington do still do a production run of 7mm SAUM brass a couple of times a year.

    If they run brass they only use it for their own ammo.

    As far as I'm aware RP haven't released any SAUM brass for years.
    Contact me for reloading components, brass, projectiles, powder, primers, etc
