I just bought some norma brass for my 9.3x74, and it is .017 to .022 thinner than once fired norma brass from the ammunition that I bought to break my rifle in with. The unfired brass will not take the same load as the once fired brass from the ammunition (case head expansion) Is this common? should I just buy ammo to get brass to reload?

I am a big fan of RWS 9.3x74R brass. I like Norma ammo, but I am not a fan of their brass.

I have very good service with RWS 9.3x74R casings. I have not yet tried Hornady's brass in this caliber. Has anybody here tried them?

I have tried some and it seems to hold up well.

I like Hornady's brass as good as I like RWS, well, maybe it's the price difference that makes me think such. Wink

I only get 2 firings with Norma brass.

It is prone to incipent seperations on the third firing.

How does the Hornady brass or the old Bell brass compare with RWS?


ALLEN W. JOHNSON - DRSS

Into my heart on air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.
