[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 1125448, member: 39764"] Any [B]quality[/B] investment is worthwhile and in my opinion (from practical experience in building loads for customers and myself), Norma brass, Lapua Brass and Nosler Brass (in that order, rank heads above anything else currently available in bottleneck brass. Far as potential reloads are concerned, that will all depend on powder load and sizing regimen, IOW, how you 'treat' the brass will impact directly on the number of reloads before annealing or case failure (head seperation / neck cracking. The is no set in stone number of reloads before case failure, that depends entirely on you..... I will say that the more you work the brass, especially in the neck area, the shorter the case life is. Belted magnums excepted. Having said that, I have no expander balls on any of my bushing dies and never have, but thats personal preference only. Your mileage may vary from mine but I get excellent mileage from my brass, all the time. [/QUOTE]
