[QUOTE="dkhunt14, post: 1047636, member: 14053"] If the weight of the case is bigger or smaller the capacity changes. When the capacity changes so does the pressure, which changes the velocity. A lot of the longerange target guys fill the case with alcohol and weigh them empty to full and check capacity. They say it is more accurate because it measures volume. Because by weighing, the weight could be in the base and not change volume much. Nosler is made by Norma. I believe they weigh them and sort for you. It is also possible the mixture of metals is what Nosler wants. If you look at Lapua and compare to others, they look darker in color. They use a different percent of copper, bronze and zinc in theirs. I like Lapua but I also like Norma. RWS is really good and is also really strong brass. The problem is Lapua and RWS isn't made in a lot of cartridges that we use. Winchester is almost impossible to get because they have been using all their brass to make ammo. Matt [/QUOTE]
