Norma 300 RUM Brass Quality

[Left Hand Dave]

Is Norma 300 RUM brass any good? How does it stack up to Nosler and Remington?

Thanks

I like the Norma brass.

I have read it may be softer and primer pockets open up but those posts were 5 years ago. Have you had good brass life relative to the fact it's a large case?

I find it to be consistent out of the box with little or no need for prep work before loading. If it is softer I don't find it to cause trouble getting top end loads. If it lasts a couple firings less or more I am not sure that I can definitively say so.

I thought Norma and Nosler 300 rum brass were one in the same...

I loaded Nosler in my friend's 300 RUM custom. We've had excellent service from Nosler brass. Nosler is made by Norma and as stated is essentially load ready. I do neck size new Nosler just to make sure it's consistent and not out of round from handling. You'll like it. Good luck.

Nosler now has there own brass manufacturing plant. Not sure if ALL their brass is made in house now, but at the least, some of it is.

I was looking at this and have also heard good things about it.

Hope the Norma is good. Bought 100 pieces to rum in my 338 Edge when I get around to having it built.

I have been using Norma brass with my 300 rum for a while. I used the same 20 pieces while doing load development and now have 13 firings on those pieces of brass. I haven't lost one piece yet. Primer pockets are still tight and have only had to trim twice. I turned the necks when new and neck size only.

I ran and still run Norma brass exclusively in my rum. I tried every brand and it's the best by far. I discard for safety after 4 reloads, but it can go longer. I shoot 208 amax with 93 gr of retumbo I if I remember correctly

I also run Norma brass in my
300 RUM and like it.

Again, I want to thank everyone for their input. It helps more than most know.
