Gidday crew,

Doing a little homework for a possible project.

Has anyone out there tried converting 4.6 x 30mm brass cases into jackets for .312" diameter projies [to suit .303 rifles]

I "might" have found a local supply of cases, and I am a notorious sucker for tinkering with experimental projies.

Any advice appreciated.

Looks to be the same diameters as the 5.7x28 that many of us here use for 30 and 303 caliber jackets. Should work perfect for you!

Welcome to the forum! Lots of info here on any tinkering project you wish to accomplish.

Lots of info on the 5.7x308, here is one thread....
