FAQs

Q: Why use .311" instead of .308"?
Many military rifles (e.g., .303 British, 7.62×39) have larger bore diameters, and .311" bullets provide a better seal and improved accuracy.

Q: Can I use this for .308 Winchester?
Generally no—.308 Win barrels are designed for .308" bullets. Using .311" may cause excessive pressure unless the rifle specifically supports it.

Q: Do I need to lubricate bullets before sizing?
Yes, for cast bullets. Powder-coated bullets may not require additional lube.

Q: Will this improve accuracy?
Yes—proper bullet sizing improves:

  • Bore seal
  • Velocity consistency
  • Shot grouping

Q: Does it work with all presses?
Yes, it fits any standard reloading press with 7/8"-14 threads.
