[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1240513, member: 1521"] Don't make assumptions with brass brands. I have seen both excellent(many), and yet the worst I've ever measured, from different lots of brown box Lapua in 6br. I had a lot of Winchester in WSSM that was the best I've ever measured. It's chance, changing with lots, and different per cartridge. tbrice23, mentioned making his brass as good as any, and this is important. Our brass is what we accept and make of it. You could take 1,000pcs of junk Federal, costing nearly nothing compared to Lapua, and make diamonds from 50 of them. With a plan for it you could make those 50 last several lifetimes. As far as measurement, Norma has been the most consistent for me(my cartridges) lot after lot. It's only weakness is a soft composition. Winchester is harder, and there is a test out there showing Winchester as harder than blue box Lapua(that Lapua denies). You just never know what you have really -until measuring and testing for yourself. [/QUOTE]
