Just thought I'd let you guys know that Midway has this brass in stock again. They seem to get a supply every so often and it sells out quickly then is on backorder forever. I ordered mine yesterday.

Thanks for the link, that's waaaaay cheaper than anything else out there.

Just curious,is there any difference between the Hornady and Norma brass? Thanks

Thanks Labman. My one box of brass looks lonely! Maybe I can score another now.

375fan, not enough reloads to comment, but after firing the aforementioned 20 cases a couple times all looks well. Must be approaching 10 reloads with my old Federal factory nickel plated brass, but I wouldn't expect the same for NORMA or Hornady.

I wonder if lot to lot variation will come into play. After fireforming, the OAL (brass) had a textbook bell curve spread. Thought the necks looked nicked or split on a few but after resizing and champfering looks like no big deal and the second firing shows no signs of softness. I will say that I don't crimp these but if I did the uniform trim length would be shorter than desired. You'd probably want to buy and sort a bunch of brass like a benchrester to select only the longest for uniform trimming and crimping at the cannelure of your bullet of choice.
