This may well be sacrilege to even ask, but how okay would it be to run steel case ammo (Tula, Wolf, etc.) in my Forrester .308? Like mild blasphemy? Or like "you are going to ruin your chamber"?
Just looking right now, I've found a couple of places that have brass cased FMJ .308 for only a couple of bucks more per box than steel cased ammo, but I was wondering for the future if that proves not to be a reliable thing to find.
I don't mind spending $1, $2 even $3 a round on hunting ammo. At most I am maybe going to put a box of that through a rifle in a year between sight in and actually hunting. However, I'd like to take my rifle to the range a few times a year. I certainly don't have any delusions about putting 100, 200rnds through it in a range session like I do my 22lr, but I wouldn't mind putting a couple of boxes through in a session and not worry about how I am going to put my kids through college after that exorbitance.
