Thread: 308 brass to 7mm08

Greetings @holdover,
Yes I have done it with Winchester brass with no problems. The cases lengthen a little in the neck but are still within the length for the 7mm-08. The Palma cases may have thicker necks but should still be fine. If you can use a neck die rather than a FL die and do any load development using once fired brass.
