[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3691431, member: 15054"] This is one reason I do not have a semi auto in .308 or anything besides 5.56. 5.56 / .223 brass is everywhere and I do not mind losing a piece or 2 and my guns do not tear it up like some. Hard to find my brass in tall grass. Yea I need a good brass catcher. Now I have done many tests on brass life but it has been in bolt guns and the Winchester brand .308 full length sized I can get 18 reloads from 1 case. Remington I can get over 50 reloads from those. Brass will last you a long time if it does not get torn up too bad when fired or ejected. You start loading max loads in the cases and life will be shorter. One thing i have done during this time of high priced components is shoot much less. I used to shoot 800 or so rounds a year for my rifles and now I am way down on that number. I am finished trying different recipes in a few rifles and this saves a lot on components. [/QUOTE]
