    PPU isn't that thick. I'd be curious what the results would be with FLC or Lapua.

      BTW, flat primers aren't necessarily bad. In .308, I flatten the **** out of my primers that's what my gun and I like. ~3k through my barrel and counting. I can't see a reason to hold back .308 due to the long barrel life and inexpensive brass, especially since that little cartridge fairs much better with a high velocity so long as you maintain accuracy.

            PPU 308 brass runs hot to me too. I don't even load PPU any longer and stick with LC08 that I have in bulk.

              FC is a bit thinner than FLC, but it's a bit thicker than PPU. I'd think it would be fine. FGMM uses FC brass.

                    Winchester and FC brass.
                    All looks great
