I haven't made any since I switched to a 30BR, but what I did was make it into a 6ppc first, then a 30 PPC.
What was happenning if I used enough of the pistol powder to try and blow it out to a 30, was stretching the necks too much.
I have a 6PPC barrel that I reamed a 330 neck in. After blowing out the 220 Russian into a 6PPC in the fireform barrel I use for this, I loaded the case with a full charge of 133 and a typical 68 grn bullet, and fired it in that barrel. What comes out is a full formed 30PPC case, ready for neck turning........jackie
