Great to see old specialties in use
I'm a 7mm nut. Cut my teeth on the 7-30 Waters and learned alot with the 7mm Bellm.
I had not previously been acquainted with the Helms until I got wrapped up in Reeder's Raptors

neck 32-20 to 25?
Run it through the 32-20 full length sizer die first. then into the 25-20 resizer

7mm Raptor uses 204 Ruger brass
747 Thunder Jet uses 222 Rem mag brass (7mm bullet)



contact Gary Reeder

Reeder's Raptors using 204 Ruger case comes in 6mm,25 cal, 6.5mm, 7mm and 30 cal
I shoot the 7 and the 30
the 7mm is a lot like the 747 Thunder Jet

The 30 is like a super 30 Apache

90, 100, and 110 gr. loads

The 7mm family of rounds in the contender offer great performance
Don Bowers did a lot for the shooting sports

Shoots incredibly well!

Surprisingly mild pressures as indicated by spent primers ...

Steve, you're in luck!
My brother recently abandoned the platform and gave me his accessories.
He's left-handed and I am not, therefore I have these to offer. All have mounting bolt inside.

Lemme know if you're interested.

I doubt it
User friendly powder for reduced loads, tho
Comes in handy when the recoil needs managing
