[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1110098, member: 10291"] I have found that it is a crap shoot since chambers , cartridge design, and loads are variables. What I like to do is test the POI, accuracy, velocity, and ES of each, new, FL, and neck sized brass of a specific brand, load, and rifle chamber. I'll note the differences. I have had a few rifle/loads that have shown no material difference. While this is great, it is generally not the case. Interestingly, this is the case with my two LR 6.5x284's using Lapua brass, new or fired. Generally though, I have experienced a tendency for fired brass to have a slightly lower velocity, but tighter ES with a variety of my rifles/calibers over the years. [/QUOTE]
