[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1395888, member: 4191"] The brass used to manufacture casings can vary in yield strength, but the value is set in concrete compared to any other model that attempts to predict case pressure and the resultant MV. I know there are differences in the absolute yield strain of brass, which is why I use RWS and Lapua, when it's available. I know the yield strength can vary with use over time, which is why I periodically anneal case necks. Yet I also know the brass case head will deform and yield to pressure before any other component of the ammo or the rifle, as pressure increases to unsafe levels. No matter the make, model, or life cycle of the brass casing. [/QUOTE]
