308 ULTRA to 308 ALPO or 308 BELLM #2
« on: July 18, 2006, 12:03:13 PM »
I am thinking about sending my Ultra to David White for a rechamber to a rimed cart.
Does anyone know the difference between the  ALPO and the BELLM#2 chambers?
I know you use different dies for loading.
Does anyone have a David White rechamber in either caliber?
Any feedback on David White's work? All I can find is positive.
THANKS
COACH

It seems that a 307 Win reamer could be run into that chamber and 307 brass used with 308 loading data. A good smith can cut the rim relief without the reamer. The extractor/ejector may work with either case. The 308 can do anything an 06 will do with 150-165 gr bullets, especially handloads.
