7mm-08 brass?

[TrxR]

Thinking about getting a new hunting rifle in a 7mm-08 and am wondering what brass would you recommend to use?

Anything you can get your hands on. I have 400 rounds or so mixed brass it don't make a difference in my shooting.
No 7-08 brass, then take .308 brass and neck it down, I have 200 that way also.
It all shoots the same in my Savage rig.

I use Winchester. (good luck finding it right now)

Lapua now makes .260 brass which would be an easy neck up.

Commercial brass for 7-08 is pretty sparse right now. I resized some LC match brass to 7mm, and have been very happy with it. It does come out a little short on the length after resizing, though. If you take this route, just be mindful of the neck thickness to make sure that you keep adequate clearance.

Remington has worked well in my huntng rigs, not a lot of reason to be choosie or pay for Lapau

Been a few months now, but needed some 7mm-08 brass. Had been resizing 243 brass to use in my rifle. Anyway, all I could find was Graf and Sons had Prvi Partizan 7mm-08 brass and bought some. Prvi makes decent brass. Have been using this brand for a number of years now for reloading some of my military cartridge rifles, such as the Swede 6.5x55, 7x57 mauser, 7.65x53 Argentine and etc.

I bought 200 pieces of Norma 7mm/08 from MidSouth Shooters Supply.

Can't go wrong with the 7-08......mine is a 595 SS Tikka
Don't worry about brass.....just post 'WTB 7-08 brass' in the ads
Someone will help you out...its out there in someone's stash
Or if you're not fussy about headstamps...use 308 or 260 down or up..
Norma is great brass...but at a buck a pop...you'll lose it in the snow/mud/brush before you wear it out.......
