[QUOTE="Doug Herold, post: 1703129, member: 102658"] My favorite choice in brass has always been Lapua followed by Nosler and Norma. Hornady: one of the least preferred. Now, I got a couple of boxes of ammo which was shipped in with a custom rifle ( 7 Rem Mag ) made with Hornady brass. Trying to “match” the brass, I bought some Hornady brass at Sportsman’s Warehouse. It was 15 gr. below the “custom” brass. At the SECOND loading of the store bought brass (which had a dating of 2017 on the packaging ), it was VERY soft when primers were inserted. Furthermore, my son got a load development recipe from an Outfitter in Oregon which included “5th. Gen Hornady”. So here is my question: What’s the scoop on Hornady brass? I hear from many of my friends that it has really improved. How so ? Are there different “generations “ of this product? How do you know which generation you have just purchased? Where and how do you get the highest quality of the “good stuff”? Thanks for your help! [/QUOTE]
