[QUOTE="7stw, post: 2084711, member: 18402"] If you go this route and you are using 7.62 NATO or mil spec brass you are going to have problems as the necks are thicker than .308 win brass and if successful you are going to experience higher pressure and decreased case capacity. I would look for .243 brass as boost stated or just buy some new brass. Natchez and midsouth shooters showed some Remington in stock over the weekend. I myself unless its a wild cat or scarce shy away from forming cases. And if you do label and keep it separate. Use adequate lube like imperial sizing wax or hornadys one shot lube. [/QUOTE]
