    Is it just me?

    Or is 7.62 NOT .308? I ordered a bunch of .308 brass and almost half were 7.62. Brass thickness / pressure / load data aside, now I've got a bunch of primer pockets to ream.

      Eh. If its for plinking I don't check. My loads are far enough under max to not worry about it.

      If you're shooting match or trying to group well, then yeah I can see it being a difference.

        Exactly.

        I'll just plan on the 40 LC cases being my fouling shots, and I'll load Hornady FMJBT instead of SMK.

            What make? Not all 762 brass is the same. Not all 308 brass is the same.

                LC 13 has the same case capacity as Federal.
