Can I run 308 brass through a 7mm-08 die with out any major problem?
I know that is cheap of me, and I am what I am. [Embarrassed]
But there is a plethora of 308 at my local range, and the other day I only found one lonely case stamped 7mm-08.

Thanks And God Bless
Shawn

See the other post here titled "308 to 7MM-08"

Yes, it can be done, I do it all the time and have not had a problem. BUT you should check the length an neck thickness before use. It could be possible to have neck thickening and in a tight chamber produce high pressure. So far bullet pull and functioning has been fine in my Browning A Bolt, but each is a rule unto itself.
