[QUOTE="aviator41, post: 2522055, member: 30309"] As Jake said, it's possible, but really not worth it. Berdan primers are slightly different size than boxer primers, making a retrofit a challenge and impossible without real work on the brass. Pick up a couple of boxes of inexpensive commercial, U.S. ammo and reload that brass. American Eagle 7.62x51 ammo that is labeled for the M1A is good stuff, nice brass and can be reloaded many many times. No reason to pull your hair out with the Berdan primed brass. Enjoy that ammo, shoot it and scrap the brass with a smile on your face! If you want a few boxer primed, once fired cases to load I may have a few I'd be happy to give you and would be happy to help you with your reloading in any way you need it. I am sure you will have many fine folks here offering up help. Don't be afraid to ask, we're all happy to help! [/QUOTE]
