[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 3054607, member: 10755"] I have one parameter when it comes to brand. For my comp rifles, only the best brass is used; Lapua, RWS & Norma. For my Precision LR/ELR rifles, the same is used IF available, if it isn’t, then another brand is obtained. For instance, making several cartridges from 375H&H brass, I always tried to use old Winchester brass, which I had many of, but lately this was hard to obtain, so I tried Remington, it worked very well even though it is softer than Winchester brass. For my 416 Rigby wildcats I always used Norma as it was all I could get and had to keep pressure lower due to Norma’s thin webs, then Hornady started making it, so I tried that. Worked OK, but gets tired at about 5-6 reloads. For everything else, I have Remington, Winchester, Norma and even old Kynoch brass for my big bore doubles. There is brands I will not touch, such as Federal & Nosler… Cheers. [/QUOTE]
