Hornady is producing steel cased match loads. I shot some of them in a Savage 308 and they were pretty good. I bought some Tula in 7.62x39 and found the primer depth to be inconsistent. A soft strike would not set them off when the primers were deep. I had good results with Wolf and Silver Bear.

Bump about this issue.
