    I use 2206,
    The 308 cases I use were made in Canada by stealthround not sure if they’re still in business.
    The cases are made out of aluminium, they have small internal volume, the flash hole comes up to about halfway up the case, the cavity for powder is .308 in diameter and comes down half way down the case. Came with a little short die to only size the neck

    I reckon a cleaver fella would spin a few of then up on a lathe without too much bother..... great idea,could see it being really useful with some of the big magnums too.....no need for 3000ftlbs to finish off fallow at 2 meters sort of deal
