Nickel Case Question ??

[Beermster1]

I recently acquired some 7mm Rem Mag casings that are silver in color. I assume they are nickel plated. The head stamp is "F C 7mm Rem Mag". Can I process this as regular brass or are there different procedures to process these casings ? Will my RCBS dies work ? Anything I need to be concerned about ? Thank you

They say the nickel is harder on dies I've been doing it for years.

Proceed as normal.

I agree as well, load away.

I load them

I use nickel cases for condor-safe/lead free rifle ammo (impossible to mix up) and for .45 ACP range rounds as my brass stands out against everybody else's.

Nice looking cartridges when you get them loaded.

They load the same as brass. Nickle cases tend to crack faster than brass. They sure do look good though.
