It gets run off every once in a while. You can also neck down 300 or 375 H&H easy enough. - dan

Ya back then we thought 7 mm 160s at 3300 ish was good.

I started shooting the 7mmstw in 1990 using necked down 8mmremmag brass. At one point, I had 1000 cases on hand, that I paid around $500 for. I sold 600 cases for $600, about ten years ago, and I could easily sell it for three times that now. Now all that I see for sale is Nosler brass.

Not a long range hunter here. My STWs were way back just after it came out. My biggest 7 now is a Kimber 280AI.

That's all my son shoots for big game, although he has 10 other rifles. About 5 years ago he found 50 brass from one vendor at a gun show, that would be a good start for you, to locate some. Good luck!
