    Cheers for all the suggestions, I am reading them!

    It may be worth annealing 2 or 3 cases and fire forming to get a better picture of your chamber dimensions . Unlike rimless cases that stretch from the shoulder backwards to the boltface, rimmed magnums stretch forwards from the rim first .
    Not all brass comes from the factory annealed , some are annealed mid' forming .
