[QUOTE="jpndave, post: 2301067, member: 5437"] My take on this is both from experience and observations. I'd appreciate others input on this summary. ADG - Toughest/Hardest brass almost to a fault. Maybe a little thicker than Lapua definitely thicker than factory not as thick as Peterson. Excellent quality and consistency. Expensive $$$ Lapua - Tougher/Harder than factory brass. Thicker than factory not as thick as Peterson. Excellent quality and consistency. The gold standard. Generally the best value. Peterson - Thickest brass - lowest capacity. Softest of the top level brass. Excellent quality and consistency. Expensive $$$ Alpha - Close to Lapua in thickness & hardness. Excellent quality and consistency, maybe even the best. Magnums not available yet. $ near Lapua. Thoughts? Corrections? Norma - better than other factory brass. Not at the level of the others above. Good choice if the others are not available for the application. [/QUOTE]
