As you might know, I'm not new to shooting or reloading, but I have just come to a situation that's new to me. I just sold my Ruger 77 Compact in 260 and am having a new rifle built in the same caliber. I have probably 50 or 60 rounds that were fireformed and neck sized (standard RCBS NK die) to my former 260. I can pull the bullets, dump the powder, pop the primers, resize the brass and start over. But...if by chance the fireformed rounds will chamber with no effort in the new rifle, and if they are not too long on a COAL basis, should I be able to shoot them?
Now what I probably will do is to pull the bullets and go with that first approach, mostly just to not waste the bullets themselves, but what do you think about my shooting them. They aren't anything more than a mid range powder charge.
