I need some advice on reloading for my FAL rifle.
About a year ago I bought a case of Indian .308 ammo. The case looks like it was buried in some kids sandbox and the ammo shoots very badly out of my FAL.
I'm assuming some of the powder is bad because it doesn't cycle even with the gas system closed.
The rifle shoots fine with new commercial.
Instead of junking the ammo though, what i'd like to do is pull the bullets and primers then reload the cases with fresh powder and primers.
The thing is though is that up until now all i've reloaded for is bolt guns.
Can you guys provide me with some incite on reloading for auto loaders?
Specifically, what do i need to do different than i do with bolt guns?
Maybe some .308 reloading recipes?
Thanks
