From Google:
The Forster .303 British seating die may not be directly compatible with the 7.7mm Arisaka. While both cartridges share similarities, including the .311-.312 bullet diameter, there are important differences. Here’s what you need to consider:
Case Length and Shoulder Angle:
The 7.7mm Arisaka has a longer case length and a different shoulder angle compared to the .303 British.
Attempting to use a .303 seating die on the 7.7mm Arisaka could lead to improper seating depth due to the different case dimensions.
Neck Sizing Die:
Some reloaders recommend using a .303 neck sizing die for the 7.7mm Arisaka because of their similarities.
However, it’s essential to verify that the neck sizing die aligns properly with the Arisaka case neck.
Load Data:
Be cautious when using old load data, especially from sources that don’t provide pressure figures.
The 7.7x58mm Arisaka is stronger than the .303 British, so load data should be specific to the Arisaka cartridge1.
