Picked up some brass at the range marked A80 on top and 7.62 R1M1 under. Looks like NATO 7.62, but will not size with standard dies. The diameter of the case is a just slightly larger than a standard 7.62 X 51. Just wondering what the difference is.

It is South African 7.62x51 Nato/.308 Win. It may have been fired in a chamber on the "generous" side and have expanded a bit.
