Hmmmm, the well prepared brass from Nosler is true, BUT when it first came out, I was working in a gun shop and got good discounts on stock so I paid for 2 boxes @ $90 each, about double what Norma cost at the time.
The prep aspect was good, but the internal capacity, hardness and primer pockets were terrible. I was so dissapointed with the brass I sectioned a piece and was horrified to find it was IDENTICAL in every way, capacity, weight and internal shape as some scrap Federal FC-10 cases I had given to me. These were once fired factory and when seating primers, some were falling out!
The problem....the primer pockets had loosened on START LOADS, the middle loads had EJECTOR MARKS and new primers fell out, never got close to the published maximum, which is fine and I know the reasons why.
I know Norma make the brass now, but that experience has made me not trust Nosler brass is ALL made by Norma.
Norma brass is just as good as Noslers weight matched brass.
Cheers.
