Seems like I heard that it was Hornaday that made Nosler brass. If not then it's Winchester. The reason you had trouble fire forming Norma brass is that it's a little thicker and harder than the normal grades of Winchester or Remington brass normally used. I've fire formed a lot of Norma brass without a hitch, but you must use a very stiff load with the case absolutly secured in the chamber. Just jamming the bullet is not good enough
