    Necking down 308 to 7mm08

    Hey chaps.
    So a friend in the US has sent me 1,000 rounds of 308 brass (once fired, fully resized and tumbled and ready to use). I'm going to be flicking some of them off... but I thought since some of my brass is getting a little tired, I'd like to have a crack at necking some of it down.

    Now on another forum I'm on some of the guys reckon I can just neck them down and it's done. Others are talking about annealing the brass to make it last longer (which I've never done) and talking about reaming the neck.

    Anyone here done it? Any of you seasoned reloaders got any tips?

    Cheers guys.
