I recently got set up to reload 7.62X54r for my home modified Mosin target rifle. The bore is very tight and can take .308 bullets. I purchased the lee 7.62X54r dies with the factory crimp.
My question is, when I load .308 bullets into X54r cases should I be seating them with a .308 die set and factory crimp or will the 7.62X54r ones work well enough? Which should I use?
