      what was the price if i may ask? i would buy 100 if not rediculously high. its OK to have a few hundred overpriced brass if one has the funds anyway

        Shooters Pro Shop shows $56.95 for fifty Nosler 6.5 Grendel brass and Norma was usually a little more expensive than Nosler. Probably $1.20+ each before this run on reloading components.

          My experience with NORMA .223 brass is that it is top of the line brass. With heavy construction, very uniform primer pockets, and perfectly drilled flash holes. It's the brass I use for distance competition use in National Match .223. A couple years ago, they did subcontract LC brass and stamped their name on it, which is decent brass, but isn't nearly as good of quality as the exceptional and heavy European made NORMA brass. But I'm sure that's specific only to .223 brass.

          I have every expectation for NORMA 6.5 Grendel brass is proper European brass. But if it is instead Nosler brass stamped as NORMA, then I can't say. Nosler in my experience is decent US made stuff, but no better then that rating.

          Post some pictures, and in particular pictures inside the casings and several pictures showing several rounds flash-holes. And do a weight test to see the weights of about 10 of the casings, and post that.
