Hi I am new to the forum so I spent a while with the search function but got no joy. I reload for my WWII bolt action rifles, and have played around from time to time with heavy 30 cal bullets at less than super sonic speed, around 900 to 1150 fps with 150 to 220gr lead bullets.
Initially my interest was to get my home brewed lead bullets to spin rather than strip through the rifling when I pushed them too fast.
I have heard that a US company produced reduced capacity brass for the 30.06 and the 308. But I cannot find any advertised on the web.
Does it still exist, or can I safely make my own cases by filling an empty case with lead then drilling out the center from mouth to primer pocket?
Any advice on finding this brass or creating my own, much appreciated.
The end product will be used at up to 150 yds on Chital deer and feral pigs pushing a 240gn Hp soft lead bullet.
