Hi Folks --- My first post.  I'm picking up a RBH in .30 cal and want to shoot cast, if possible.  Small game and target mainly.  Can gas checked bullets in 32 cal. be resized  to .308 with out damage? What has worked for any of you?  Any  suggestions?  Thanks,   Bill

 Welcome! Nothing but fine folks here. I use 32-20 cases in mine with a 30 carbine sizer die and a 115 grain Lyman cast, flat nosed gas check and a mild charge of 700X.
