Nosler or Norma 257 Roberts brass

I'm going to fireform to 257 Roberts Ackley improved and want good brass to start with. looking for 100 rounds or so preferably same lot, but will consider any offers. Could trade lots of different brass if you need it. let me know.

I do not have any virgin Nosler .257 brass, only fired. I do have Norma brass though and I am guessing that they and Nosler are the same brass. My .340 Weatherby brass, both in Nosler and Norma branded weighed exactly the same and had the same std. deviation for 50 virgin cases which indicates that they are probably from the same manufacturer.

The issue at the moment is which one can you easily buy? I would guess that they are both Norma brass.

I checked all over Steve and it is pretty scarce stuff. Put yourself on the list over at Graf's so you'll get notified when some comes in.

I would too. Some stuff I really reach out to Norma or Nosler, but for that kinda money, I would be okay with prepping up that Winchester..

Winchester .257 brass is harder to find. Remington seems to own the brass market for .257 Roberts brass. SPS had a bunch of 110 grain cartridges for $22/box, that is how I got my Nosler brass.
