Reloading Thread .(Guns & Ammo)

[Louwai]

Factory winchester for my 308 only costs $70 per hundred, so why bother reloading.

That's about what my Winchester 270 factories were costing me 25yrs ago. Reloading worked out to about $0.12 / round & so that's the way we went. We just loaded std grain.
Were only contract shooting & so didn't want to waste the stuff. + a lot of our cases were getting to the end of their life. probably 50% were cracked around the cap base, so didn;t want to make them too hot incase they blew the back off.

I sold that rifle when I was 18. I think I've still got a couple of rounds kicking around somewhere........
