True or not the +p brass is suppose to be designed to handle higher pressures than that originally intended for , in this case, the .257 Roberts. Is it different than any other .257 brass produced today? Your guess is as good as anyone elses, Red.

IMO there is no difference at all.

The +P refers to the load in the brass and not the brass in itself.
