[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 290127, member: 307"] Winchester is usually pretty good brass, so I thought. I usually buy the cheap stuff (R P) and prep/grade it carefully. I was given some Frontier (Hornady?) .300WM brass from a guy back in N.C. and I've been using it for over a year now. I think I'm on the third loading and I've been getting sub-1/2" groups with it the whole time. I'm going to anneal it after this run (3rd firing of lot). I was also given some nickle plated Win brass that I have run 3 high pressure loads through and it is giving up the ghost in the form of split necks. It's purdy, but not so shiney in the trash can! If you can afford it buy Norma. They, like Lapua, have top notch brass. It's got a hefty feel to it and there doesn't seem to be a lot of variance in the 100 cases that I have (7mmRemMag). Have you called about that brass? JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
