Can you

[Doc68]

Can you use 6.5/6 creed moor brass to form into 7mm-08 brass?

Let the flaming ensue if this is just a retarded question.

I think you would be better off starting with 260, but 308 will work in a pinch, it'll be .020 short of trim length. The Creedmoor shoulder would have to move forward and you would still have a case .115" short.

Thank you. I thought it was going to be too short. Thank you for the input though. Much appreciated. Happy new year's.

I am not saying it should be done, but if it is going to be done, use something like the cream of wheat method with a charge of pistol powder.

Firing an actual bullet with that much headspace could be disasterous.

Very true.

The base case is a .308 necked down to 7mm rather than 7.62mm
