If you can avoid turning rims down; expanding, trimming to length, inside reaming and standard loading isn't to bad to make up a batch of cases. (When I make a batch of anything special, I make at least 50 and usually 100 or 200) If you can turn the rims, 30-30 WCF is cheap compared to the 9.3x 72 R. I never did this round as dies are a small fortune. For the limited shooting most would do with these guns, you might be better off buying a few boxes of the old ammo, and call it a day. Ivan

P.S. When I need to inside ream and trim to length, I do them in the same step with a Forester case trimmer with a ream bit instead of a pilot. (for this cartridge you could use .410" since you FL size after reaming). Being found slumped over my loading press would be one of the better ways to exit this life. Ivan
