[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2218152, member: 101791"] That interesting to me. I shoot a lot of belted magnums rifles. In my 308 Norma Mag chamber I use a 300WM neck sizing die. The necks are shorter than the 308 NM cases. It only resize the about half the neck. No bumping was done. I normally use 300 WM Brass to start with. It's a hell of lot cheaper than trying to get 308 NM brass. F.L. size, and fire form and you are off. I know it extended the length time I could use the brass. To the point I was loosing the brass to primer pocket getting to big to retain the primer properly. Now I have learn a new way to extend that to get additional firing from the brass. I haven't put that into play just yet, but I will try it to see how it works out. [/QUOTE]
