308/260 Rem FLS dies

Post by PeteFox »

I use a Wilson bushing type FLS die on my .308s.
Given that all the dimensions except for the neck dia and shoulder length are the same, can I use the 308 die with an appropriate bushing to resize 260 Rem cases?

Yes, but you may find after a couple of resizings that a small ring will form around the neck/shoulder juncture that may cause firm chambering.
