distanceshooterWhat are your results?
Hey guys, just wanted to see what results you were getting out of Norma brass. I just found some (

Big Wonderful WyomingI rate brass this way:
#1 RWS
#2 Horneber
#3 Lapua
#4 Norma
#5 Hornady
#6 Remington
#7 Winchester
#8 Federal
The top two are great, the next two are fine, and the last two work.

Idaho Sharpshooterdepends on the cartridge to a great extent.
I am getting into 1000yard shooting, and building a 6.5-284 NORMA. The barrel maker says the LAPUA is a bit sturdier, and will last more firings, but also says the two brands are identical dimensionally, and uses the same reamer for both.

InstructorShot NRA Long Range for quite a few years and tried the Norma once, seemed to have very soft primer pockets versus Lapua. Hard to go wrong with Lapua brass from my experience.
