I recently started making up some 7.62x25 cases out of surplus .223 casings.
I cut the .223 casing to 1" long.
Run the casing into my Lee 7.62x 25 sizing die.
Then I use my drill press to drill out the neck using a size "N" drill that is .302 diam.
Then I trim the cases to length.
Then run them thru the neck internal sizing or flaring die.
The only issue I have had so far on only a few cases is.
To drill out the case neck.
I held the casing in a pair of pliers.
If I didn't hold it tight enough.
The case would spin a little and scratch some minor grooves in the case.
Those damaged cases will get thrown out.
But so far.
The cases I have loaded and fired with 100 gr powder coated cast Boolits over 5.0 of Unique.
The ammo fired great , and fire formed the rear section of the case to chamber dimensions.
Not the case head but the case body.
The cases resized really nicely and now fit the chamber a lot better.
Next thing is to work up loads and see if the smaller interior dimension case does not Up the pressure with better loads.
