I would pick up any 308 brass i find, as long as your range allows it. I also buy the cheapest factory ammo I can find and do the same thing,, take it to the range and shoot it specifically for the brass, but also to practice on the mechanics of shooting the rifle. I am really just getting into shooting a rifle for precision so every bit of practice helps. I try to buy the same grain bullett as i will be relading with but these days, i just take what i can get.

does the 308 brass you are using have crimped primers? that would cause the primers to look a little smaller after you take them out. if so you will need to ream or swage the primer pocket to remove the crimp before inserting the new ones.
