308 Crimp Die for 30-30 ?
« on: November 11, 2011, 09:06:14 PM »
Can I use a Lee Factory Crimp die for 308 Win for Win 30-30 ?

Looks good to me, just double checking the collective knowledge.
I'm not looking for a heavy crimp. Just light too moderate on the cannelure Sierra 150FN.

     Well the case is smaller in diameter , I'd try it , length might be an issue . The 30-30 is shorter and may not go into the die far enough to get a crimp . I have done 30-06s in the .308 FCD , works fine .
