I prefer proper head stamp brass specifying caliber. But lacking that military brass carrying no caliber designation is a close alternative. Yes 308 brass will work once formed it will Have slightly less capacity enough you need work up the top Loads. It will Provide excellent service life.

Have ya thought of making brass from 308 or 30/06 LC brass?

No I haven't. I just am not sure how to do that. Thanks..
Its as simple as good lube and a sizing die. I recommend Imperial sizing wax. But simply lube a 308 case and size it in a 243 Sizing die. You might be ifit from turning the nexks and annealing also is never a bad Idea. But its a simple job.
