.307 and .308 DIES ?
I have some RCBS reloading dies, the 2 die set. They are marked "307 and 308 Winchester". Can I run either case through them without adjustment from one to the next and get the right resizing, bullet depth, etc? What is the difference between the two cases, in lay terms?
Hi Joe,
Exterior demensions are the same, except the 307 round is rimmed so you need the same shell holder as that used for the 30/30. Changing out shell holders will allow you to load both rounds. Not sure about making adjustments between the two with the locking ring. The 307 headspaces on the rim and the 308 on the shoulder.
On the interior, the 307 holds slightly less water than the 308 Win. so use 307 data only when loading for this round.
