.300 Weatherby

[Swampman]

I have access to a Japanese Weatherby Mark V.  Is there any difference worth noting between the Norma brass and the Remington brass?

it is said that the norma brass is better. I dont know swampy ive used both norma and wby which are both norma brass and i think overall i actually prefer then remington. Case life has been simular to me but then i dont allways try to squeeze the last fps out of a load. I RARELY load anything over reloading manual recomendations. I have had more problems with things like primer pockets not being cut to the right dept and flasholes drilled off center with the norma made brass. But to be honest id take any of it and use it.

Thanks if I can get it to shoot good I may try to trade for it.

the two i have were a bit finiky but they werent mark Vs mine were a stainless bdl and a vanguard. Both were fussy about what you had to feed them but just for a heads up both shot barnes 180 tsx bullets with re 22 into less then an inch for 5 shots at a 100 yards. I used a fed match mag primer. Everything else in both guns was 1.5 or larger. It didnt matter much to me as theres not much that load wouldnt take care of that a guys going to grab a 300 wby for anyway. Its a great round though and my favorite mag .30 cal.
