.308 Norma Mag

[Gomer]

This may be in the wrong forum,but I just aquired 5 boxes of brand new .308 Norma mag brass with dies.I am thinking of putting same on the EE.Any demand for this ammo?Is this caliber still commonly used?

There's a few of us out there using a 308NM. What do you have in mind price wise? PM me.

yes it is wanted. New is too @#&*% much $ for brass, ie;2$ round. I made up 60 rds from 300 win mag.

Tell me your price , And seeing just how hard it is to come by I would say that not to many people use it .I really don't need the brass but , I would like to know more about the dies.If you don't mind please e-mail me some infor on them.

Brass is made quite easily from 7mm RM brass.

 

[Why not?]

,,,,,.and, even easier from 338 win Mag brass.

Okay, why is it easier from 338 brass? Isn't it just a run-through with the full-length resizing die just the same? I just started shootin 308 norma, had a couple hundred 7mag cases lying around, so am using those. All I do is run them through the resizing die, and they seem so work just fine. How would necking down be easier than necking up? I actually read that necking down things can be more dangerous because the neck will get thicker and that can present a pressure problem, whereas necking up will never present that problem. Please educate me [seriously].
