So it's a higher pressure 7prc w/ smaller body and tab longer case length (2.417 cs 2.260).

Now another 277fury wannabe.

Says you can reload case, but rumors state dies won't resize properly? Maybe to much spring back?I'll stay away from reloading the 277fury and the 7backcountry. Getting all brass case and staying below 65k, then I'd reload.
 
Nah, i don't think so. federal will make a cartridge and then discontinue it. i sighted in both my 6.5 grendel and 224 valkyrie with fusion. hunted with them, killed deer with them. and now they don't make fusion for them anymore. i did stock up on 224 when 223 could not be found a few years back. but i don't have much gendel in fusion. so for me to buy another different caliber cause federal makes ammo for...NOPE.
