[QUOTE="nmbarta, post: 1991089, member: 78438"] Really doesn't matter much which one you choose, the rifle you have built will be the reason it shoots or doesn't, that part has literally nothing to do with the cartridge. Finding readily available good brass is a good reason to lean one way or another. If you have an action that supports one over another would also be a reason to lean on way or another. If your starting fresh, well....lapua makes great brass, and it's everywhere. I've owned a few big boomers, still own a couple of them. You should spend more time worrying about your builder and components and getting it set up right than you should worry about which piece of brass your powder is going to sit in before it sends a bullet through your rifle. I like them all, if starting fresh, I'd be torn between the norma and lapua. Easy to find good brass would probably steer me to the lapua, but I really like the norma. Good problems to have, good luck with it. [/QUOTE]
