    i am going to buy more brass for reloading 7mm08 but it is more expensive and harder to find than .308 brass, is there any negative effects to just buying 308 brass and resizing it to 7mm08??

    Unless you are a top Internationally listed Pistol Competitor, OR you are shooting all loads Right AT the maximums, then the answer is NO.

    Thanks Handload, I didn't think it did, but I was wrong once a long time ago, so I don't take chances any more.[:D][:D][:D]

    Hello BE VERY CAREFUL with your 40 loads because of very small case capacity any setback of the bullet when it hits the feed ramp can result in high pressure. You need to load close to MAX OAL and either have a small sizing die or a good crimp. If you can push the loaded bullet down with your thumb you need more crimp . DO NOT try any +p loads with the 40.
