Just getting started reloading .308, and I'm still gathering up all the tools, brass ect....
Decided to go with IMR 4895 powder since I can use it in my .30-30, .30-06 and I'm sure my .223 once I look into it too.
While I was at a local fun store (Gun store for those whom never frequent them!) and I picked up a box of 100 Sierra 168 grn. HPBT bullets. Got home and noticed that there is no crimp ring on them and I read that you don't use the crimp die. Makes sense. Now here's my qustion. Can i use these in an
M1A? I'm worried that during the loading/firing process that the bullet might be shoved back into the case causing problems of over pressure, and jamming?
Again, I have NO experience with rifle reloading, YET.
