My only reloading has been for my Enfields, neck-sizing only.

1) My first question is whether the lower cost .308 ammo can be reloaded about as many times as surplus Boxer-primed NATO 7.62 available from whichever distributor? I use "Ammoseek" to compare prices for .303 British, but notice lots of .308/NATO choices.

2) The next is whether neck-sizing only works well with only one bolt-action gun in .308, or is neck-sizing best done only for rifles such as Enfields?
Would buying the typical full-length dies be best?

The only goals are to plink and be economical.
