How are you making it?
How does it compare in capacity to Norma?

I form it from .308

Apologize for the delay, I had to dig into my record books for this one...looks like the last time I water tested capacity, it was across 25 casings, on a Chargemaster (...so take that for what it's worth), capacity meaned 47.8 grains on newly formed pieces, trimmed to 1.900", with shoulders bumped back -0.002" (+/- 0.25%) below a DTA chambered fired 6XC case.

I don't know what the capacity is for new Norma brass; I'd assume 49-51 given Norma brass is typically not as robust as Lapua.

Hope that helped.

Cases are formed, necks are expanded and turned to .015" for uniform case/bullet tension and concentricity, trimmed, deburred/chamfered case mouths inside and out, and annealed on Benchsource annealer. Benefits are .002 +/- thicker case necks over Norma brass, weight is 8-10 +/- grains heavier and impeccable Lapua-quality primer pockets.
