We are now up to 425 cases to be ordered. Five of you have ponied up your hard earned cash to buy enough 585 brass to launch the space shuttle! I'm going to wait till the 15th of May to order from Horneber. If anyone else wants-in you need to contact me by E-mail. -Rob

It will be a fair sized parcel that arrives on your doorstep Rob.

Are there many more who are ordering ?.

Hopefully he might make it a standard item if enough of us order.

PC,

Maybe you should print the 585 Horneber brass threads out and send them to Bruce Bertram.

Given that you are in Victoria and are trying to get 585 brass from German says a lot.

Mike I am not an expert on Brass or mettalurgy but from what I can gather he only has to purchase a little better or harder quality brass. He also needs to ensure his dimensions are more precise, from what I can gather this has also been a complaint.

We must also realise that Bertram despite our complaints, does play a role to some degree, and will service your need for obsolete brass when no other option is available. I have visited the Bertram Brass Factory in Seymour, Victoria and Bruce seems like a good bloke. And the factory seemed alright.

But when the chance came to get some better stuff I jumped on it. I have already purchased 10 Bertram cases and they are very soft around the neck.

500 grains has a friend who's .505 gibbs Bertram brass has got better with each fireing. Thats what I hope will happen with my .416 Brass.

I purchased 100 .416 Rigby Bertram cases from him and they are soft but they might work harden a little after the first fireing. I was not aware that Norma brass could be purchased without to much bother at the time.

Talked to Dieter today. I'm cutting a MO to him on May 15th. Last chance guys!-Rob

Please see your email. My priority mail envelope and cashiers check are going priority mail to you today.

By the way, up that total to 625 cases please.

Hopefully .585 NYATTI rifles will become so popular that the major gun manufacturers will have to produce them

I would like to see Marlin bring out there guide gun 18 1/2" ported barrel varient chambered for the .585 NYATTI

could anyone tell me if they've had any experience of .505 Gibbs bell Mast tech.brass and their quality ?

Horneber also makes 505 Gibbs brass and it looks/works extremely well.
As far as a Guide gun in 585 NYATI goes. It think that the retinal reattachment surgeons would love it. They will make lots of money!
I can just imagine the number of folks at the local gun clubs walking around in upper body casts wearing eyepatches!-Rob

Hand surgeons would love it too, because the stocks would break at the grip under recoil.

Marlin would reinforce the stocks, and make it weigh a little more. I reckon if Marlin did do it you would be the first to buy it 500

And I know you would buy one BER007.
