Forming .308 Winchester brass from 6.5 Creedmoor brass

[Buzznrose]

I very well may do that. Anybody have any idea what the trade ratio is for 6.5 Creed brass to .308 brass?

since you were gonna go through the trouble of trying to resize it, I’d say 1:1 for good quality .308 brass

^^This ^^ would be reasonable since the O/P is getting the brass that is thrown in on a sale of other components and the O/P has no idea of how many times the brass was shot or reloaded too hot.

Next question: I have an offer for a free Jaguar XKE …

Probably just needs rear brakes, if you turn the rotors you are looking at an 11hr job. Might check the rear camber before removing the half shafts if they need more or less shims to correct, it will save you from having to take it all apart again…

Those are also inboard brakes too, if I remember correctly

Yes, great to have less unsprung weight but you can’t just pull the wheel/caliper off and remove the rotor. You have to break down the rear suspension and that’s what makes it so much work. The half shafts are also a suspension “link” and shims at the U joint yoke, to 3rd member are what set the camber at the rear.
