jjs404 Jeffery Brass: Norma or Hornady
Interested in your opinion in comparing the quality of Norma and Hornady 404 Jeffery brass. Any problems of note with either?
The Hornady brass is a good deal less expensive but thought I read an issue with quality i.e. chambering problems?
Appreciate your input.
Thanks,

x2mosgI can't comment on .404Jeff, but for my 416 Rigby, the Hornady brass has been great. Norma is always a good bet, but as you said, it costs twice as much. My 416 Rigby brass has seen as many as 5 loadings and hes yet to need a trim. I feel like it's good stuff. I'm going to it for my 375 H&H when I buy again.

jeffeosso.545 max base diameter on the hornady .. excellent quality .. i've run it at higher than 404 pressure, as this is the basic cases that were used to make the headstamped accrel carts.. the 40's at least .. the 500 Accrel is hornady 416 rigby
