[QUOTE="Nimrodmar10, post: 564631, member: 36369"] Well, I bit the bullet and just loaded one of the Nosler brass with my existing load of 105 gr. of US869 under a Swift 150 gr. Scirocco II. Shot that one shell over the Chrono and checked it for pressure signs and velocity. It showed no more pressure than the Remington brass and the velocity was 15 FPS over the average velocity. One thing I did notice: On the Nosler brass the Federal 215M primers were very hard to seat into the primer pockets. I figured this was a good thing. But the one brass that I fired as a test load would not let the primer seat at all. I damaged two primers trying to get them into the pocket then ended up flaring the primer pocket just a tad with the deburring tool to get it to finally seat. Has anyone else had problems with Nosler brass having extra tight primer pockets? I could also be the primers. A primer pocket uniformer fit into the pocket with no problem. [/QUOTE]
