[QUOTE="bigedp51, post: 1180122, member: 28965"] Winchester .243 or 7mm-08 brass is the hardest of the American made brass and half the cost of Lapua. At the link below .243 brass was used for forming the 260 Ackley, but because of problems he went to .260 Remington brass to save work.

[U][U][U][URL="http://brassbombers.com/308-762-LC-Long-Range-Cleaned-100-Pieces-7LR-CSP10.htm"].308/7.62 - LC Long Range - Cleaned - 100 Pieces[/URL][/U][/U][/U] [SIZE=2]If you use 7.62 Lake City brass you will have thicker necks and the same problems with donuts as the first link above. I bought 100 standard 7.62 cases to form into .243 cases but I had problems with neck thickness uniformity and stopped after making 10 cases. [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
