[QUOTE="AKGuide, post: 1010663, member: 64701"] I use Nosler brass for my 300 RUM and it is definitely softer then Rem brass, but is of better quality. Also on average the nosler is 10 grains heavier than the rem I use. I use what Kirby has explained in other posts as my max usable load which is a hint of an ejector mark, you have to look very hard and in the right light to see it. Kind of a ghost mark in the shape of a half moon. With this I anneal after every firing and have loaded my Nosler brass a total of 12 times before I had a hairline fracture at the webbing and threw them out. My RUM has a tight chamber and if I loaded how everyone else was for it here on the forum I am sure I would have blown myself up already. I'm with MudRunner2005 start low and let the brass tell you when to stop. Reuben [/QUOTE]
