Re: brass options
I bought factory Winchester ammo yr ago. Couldn't find any brass. Then finally ran across 400. Bought them then ran across 500 more all older Winchester stuff. Been buying once fired brass here and there. So i can leave the new stuff in the bags. I carry my 204 in my truck every day of the yr. Never had any issues with the older Winchester stuff. I think i mite have a bag of the newer stuff. I would have to look.

Re: brass options
I used a Lee .300 AAC/BO sizing die. Also, .204 makes excellent .300 AAC brass. I bought a new 250 round bag of Nosler brass, 3 had neck damage from the forming. So I cut them down and made them into .300 BO brass. Work great. Last week I took the .300 BO out and shot gophers at up to 300 yards with 110 Vmax bullets. I have a Vortex red dot and 3x magnifier on my rifle. At longer ranges I just covered the gopher with the red dot and pulled the trigger. It did make a mess out of them.
