[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2012575, member: 10755"] Web thickness/ hardness determines how much and how long a case can withstand max pressure. Thin webs, such as Norma, do not handle max pressure for 3 firings before primer pockets fail. Thick webs, such as old Winchester brass, can withstand many more firings at max pressure. So, to answer your query, you want STABLE brass for LR, ADG comes to mind, and if you can get it, a ,473” case head lasts a long time if it has SRP case heads. Small rifle primer pocket take more pressure before deforming, which is a good thing. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
