7.62x54r bullets in 303brit

Widners is selling pulled 7.62x54r bullets real cheap said to seat below Cannalure for correct OAL for 303, is this going to work ok? I know the overall length will be correct but will there be enough or to much of the bullet in the case and will the cannalure being exposed casue any concerns.

I go 2 brits and would like to load some cheap ammo for them.

Thanks Mike

I use 303 bullets in my 7.62x54R all the time. Don't see why you would have a problem with the reverse.

Snowman357,

WELCOME to this Forum, I see this is your first post.

I load many bullets with the cannelure above or below the case mouth and never have any problems. If the bullets "mike out" ok for your rifle, then load and shoot.

Again, welcome to this site.

Adam
