I just inherited a 25-284 from my Dad. There are also two full boxes of 284 FACTORY ammo that he intended to use the brass from for his wildcat. When I pull the bullets,
I can use the brass and primer for the 25-284, the bullets in my 7mm mauser.
I was thinking I could use the powder in a slightly larger caliber and case if I use the
same weight bullet. So here is the question.
Can I use the powder, in the same charge, with the same weight bullet (but one step
up in caliber) in my 30-06? The case capacity of the 30-06 is a little larger than 284.
