[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1241504, member: 30902"] I've generally had pretty good luck with Rem Brass but I don't believe I'd put my faith in anything other than Lapua to attempt this kind of far over pressue testing. I've seen the results of brass splitting down below the neck and shoulder and around the base even with normal "max" or "close to max" loads with that gas escaping everywhere it can in front of the shooter's face with a couple requiring a trip to the hospital for powder burnt eyes. I've also seen some blown barrels with people evaced out for much more serious problems. We once had an armorer nearly bleed to death when an out of head space M2 Blew up firing mounted in a trip pod. His legs were stretched out underneath it and large fragments of the exploded case just turned his inner thighs into hamburger and that was the stoutest brass made at the time. Had we not had a medivac chopper handy he'd have had a really bad day. [/QUOTE]
