For anyone with a Sherman long action or wanting to build one, RWS has 270 brass in stock. You can use it for all the Sherman bore sizes.
IT WONT BE THERE FOR LONG!

Seems like really good brass. I picked some up a while back the last time they got a little shipment of it in. Sat on their waiting list for almost a year before I got my hands on some for my 270 Sherman.

Thanks for the heads up! I have been trying to obtain RWS .270 brass for about two years. As of this morning, they still have some in stock. I ordered a few boxes to go with the pulled down cases I acquired earlier this year.

I am REALLY looking forward to working with this stuff. Planning to set one box of cases aside for development purposes. I will be completing development with multiple projectiles. It will be interesting to see how the RWS withstands the testing vs the Norma brass I have used up to now (which is quality brass, but not tough brass).

If ADG can ever be convinced to produce something in this case family, I will definitely obtain some and test it, too. I am fond of their product. It would be an interesting comparison to what is currently available.

Start a couple grains lower with the rws than your Norma. It's tougher but it holds a little less capacity. I've got some fireformed and then worked up to pressure with some of mine and lost around 30-40fps on the top end vs the nosler I was using. The largest benefit for me is the rws is the proper length for the sherman where the nosler cases I started with were trimmed about .015" short right out of the box. This also isn't an issue with the Norma brass but rws definitely has a better all around reputation for quality and toughness.

YES on all of above!

Got 5 boxes of it. I was using Norma 280 brass but we will see how this works out.
