I would appreciate any info on forming 375 Flanged Magnum cases (H&H without the belt)

Not much that I can find on the web. One reference to using 45-120 cases is not convincing at all.

New Norma brass cost US$5 each!!!

Agreed.

Also found that the cases are a lot cheaper in Australia. BELL, Jamison & Norma are available & Norma cases are just $3 Aus Dollar!

Get the Norma cases. They are great to work with.


Where are you buying them for $3/case? Last lot cost me AUD180/50 last April, now I see they are about AUD210!

Cheers, Chris

That's cheap!! In a Australia, 505 Gibbs brass costs me $7.90 each, as does 500 Nitro brass.
Both are Norma, which is the only supplier here for all my exotic big bores.
416 Rigby brass runs at $199 per 50!

Just buy it, it will last a long time and pays for itself after a few firings.

Cheers.

Thanks Nakihunter. Actually cheaper here than the USA when you factor in freight.
