I form 8 X 57 cases from 30/06 Lake City military cases.

I use a Redding form die made especialy for this process.

I lube the case well and then using a Rock Chucker press, I run the case into the die, cut the protruding excess brass off with a fine tooth hacksaw with the case still in the die (its made to do this), use a fine tooth file to square the neck (again with the case still in the die), remove the case and then bevel the case mouth inside and out. The case is then ready for loading in the normal manner.

I use the cases thus fomed in several military mausers with good success.
