WRA 308 brass
I have a bunch of boxer primed 308 brass headstamped with WRA and a plus sign inside of a circle. Who made this brass? Is it good for reloading? Thanks.

Far as I know WRA=Winchester Repeating Arms. It should be boxer primed and therfore esily reloadable.

ranb craigster is correct. You have US military 7.62x51/308wcf brass. The cross in the circle indicates that the load meets the NATO standards. That is good brass for reloading. You will need to remove the military crimp on the primer pocket. You should also reduce max loads a couple of grains because the military cases are thicker than civilian cases.
