Good morning all. I recently bought a new Savage Axis in .308. I did the expected cleaning pror to shooting and then took it to the range. It functioned well as I had expected. After I got home I started looking at the cases to see if there were any issues with them. All was good.
I'm just getting back into reloading after many years away. Now here is the problem, if it is one. I fully intend to reload these and neck size them. I have 150gr FMJBT 308's I bought from Grafs. All of these bullets will go into the necks of the fired rounds before neck sizing. Is this normal?:confused:
I also have a 100 or so Hornady 150gr SST's that I was going to use in a Mosin Nagant. These guys are .311 and also go into the 308 cases.:confused: I expected the 308's to fit into the fired cases but not the .311's. Because these .311 rounds fit into the necks of these cases can they be used or am I missing something?? Ed
