Best Brass for the 338 Norma Magnum

[ajkellerusmc]

What is your preferred Brass for the 338NM and why? I am starting to collect components for a re barrel project on one of my Rifles.

Lapua. Most consistent i use them all but lapua is far superior

2. Peterson

I have had good luck with Norma brass. My rifle came with 200 rounds of brass and that's why I am using it.

Lapua, it's second to none.

Cheers.

As far as the answer to why, Lapua and Peterson are the longest lasting, toughest, most consistent brass you will find. Ryan Pierce tested some lapua brass in his 300 nmi, and gave up trying to kill it after 20+ firings through a single piece. With safe, or even warm loads, 100 pieces will out last your barrel.

What Cody and Fenix said. And for the very reason Cody stated. Consistency and brass that will last.

Thanks for all the input Gentlemen. Lapua will be the choice.
