Hi, I am looking for a small amount of new .308 brass (20 pcs) if anyone can help. Will cover all costs etc. I want to make up some loads for new rifle.
Thanks in advance.

You need to get a more substantial amount than 20.

Brass differs and if you sort a load out with 20 cases you will then want to replicate it. IF you use different brass, things might (probably will) change.

I suggest you see whats going and splash out on 100 new or used cases. You can then break that down to whatever suits, 50s, 20s, 25s. I tend to keep a test batch of 20 for peeing about with, but I then have enough ofthe same brass to use for shooting comps etc.

If you are not massively fussy, pick up some GGG from the NRA. It reloads well.

Or you may pick up some once fired Lapua or Federal or RWS. Most brass works ok but it depends how much fettling you want to do and how long it needs to last.

Thanks for reply, I will pick a box of Lapua up the weekend.
