Anyone do this or have knowledge, (resize 358 Norma to 338 WM)?
I purchased 25 358 new factory Norma brass a few years ago, then resized and trimmed to 338 WM. I never reloaded any and cannot find where I read this is acceptable. Measurements look good and the shoulder measures only about .003" shorter than my fired brass.
Otherwise I'm down to 100 once fired 338 WM brass (Nosler brand).
I would use the 1st go with the 358 brass to get a new scope on paper and/or some load development, or practice from sticks with light-ish loads.
