[QUOTE="tim_w, post: 1438872, member: 11132"] Nosler bought Silver State Armory. I know the former owner of SSA Art Cox. His main buisness model was helping other investors start high ammountion manufacturing facilities etc. Not long term ownership. He took a different route witb SSA becuase of US Mil contracts for specifc cartridges and loadings for certain projectsm fees. My guess is Nosler made an ocfer after those contracts were up as a way to have a fullg setup and runninv case manf and loading facility which made them no longer beholden to outside company for this. That company btw was Norma most recently prior to the purchase. I will say when Art was running it tbeh produced very hard high volume cases. Art had created processes that allowed for verh strong case walls without having to be overly thick. The 6.8 spc were very well known for taking very high pressures and lasting 15 reloadings. You could no longer see any headstamping yet the pocket still held primers snug. Out of an AR that is quite a feit. I still have cases crom the first lot of ssa small primer cases made that are going strong. His 308 cases were much the same in terms of bandling pressure. But as with most great thingz wben Nosler took over those qualities were dampened considerably. I can not speak for ALL nosler cases being made in house now as its been a few yrs since the switch but its in house or norma as far as I know. I would guess you can tell by the over all quailty comparing it to headstamped norma. [/QUOTE]
