al4x Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 if they are once fired just make sure they will go in your chamber first, I bought some that don't fit mine so have a slight dilema what to do with the primed cases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineshooter Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 Would they not fit if you full length sized them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 (edited) They would but you have to get the primer out first and if you can't fire it that is a problem, unless you can full length resize them primed Edited August 27, 2010 by al4x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ostrea Posted August 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 Unfortunately a long way from Dorset up in N Wales. 308 no good to me but as i said bought a lot of reloading equipment mostly for 44 and 223 and had to buy the 308 brass as well as the seller wanted rid of everything in one go. The new boxes have 100 in each with Lapua HYLSY 308 WIN BOXER The primmed ones are more of a pain to me as i will not be able to post them.

Graham M Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 Just CAREFULLY full length size them, and knock out the primers at the same time. Done this loads of times and as long as you don’t go at it like a bull-at-a-gate then you will have no problems. Wear safety glasses though and just take your time. G.M.

kent Posted August 28, 2010 Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 Take the depriming pin out and just size the OD, fire off the primers then resize as normal. Some dies you can alter so just the very pin is removed but any lube will contaminate your cases internally remember to clean again. I have heard you can de-prime with care but i wouldn't fancy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
