375 flanged-Bell vs HDS brass?
I'm building a 375 flanged and am going to need brass. Anyone know which brass is highest quality between Bell and HDS? Thanks!

Good Hunting,

I cannot answer this for you from experience but I have studied the issue a bit here.

Do a search in the reloading & big bore forum for Bell and HDS. You'll find some good threads.

As I recall, the Bell brass had its proponents and detractors. The HDS seemed to have solid supporters.

In the past I believe HDS brass was made by Mast (which is Bell). Recently I hear that at least some if not all is made by another supplier. I have been very happy with my HDS 450/400 3" brass whoever made it.

I have had excellent results with HDS brass in 450/400 3 1/4".
