Bullet availability???? 243 wssm vs 6.8spc

I'd go with .243 brass as well. Federal is just harder to find. As Leon has said...to do it RIGHT, the extra steps of fire forming, really isn't worth it TO ME. I have no doubt I'll get 8-10 reloads so I'm OK with spending $25 for a bag of 50.

What is SSA ammo? is that a brand?
 
I also agree with getting the proper brass. I tried necking up the fc 223 wssm brass to 25, and it was easily done by annealing and using a tapered expander. But it turned out I was getting donuts at the shoulder/neck junction and can't use them unless I ream the necks. Not worth it after all of that. In fact I have 300 cases I need to trade to some one with a 223 wssm.
 
I found the SSA ammo with a google search but now Im curious... Why a small primer ammo? and how can I be sure this is what Im getting? Again thanks for the great info. need all the help I can get
