Nosler Custom 223 Brass 50ct
i couldnt get a good picture of the inside
Description of review tests:I just bought these, havent shot them yet but that will be an update to this post.
measurements
all 50 pieces of the brass to my delight measured either 1.746 or 1.747 just above what i normally trim brass down to. a random sample of 5 cases showed all the necks to be .0065in at the mouth and concentric all the way around. a random sample of ten pieces found the weights to all be 91.5gr +/- .2. Visual inspection of all cases found the flash holes to be free from burns with a small conical grove indicating they had been deburred at the factory. a random sample of 5 different cases found the primer pockets to all be .1595in in diameter. all the holes looked centered and i could not measure the depth. running a few cases through a FL sizing die yield little resistance indicating that the claim on the box that the brass was fully prepped is true.
If i were to measure every piece of brass i would not be surprised if i did not need to cull a single piece.
Pros:
Damn near perfect. Nearly every case in the box is identical to one another.
Cons:
Cost. nearly three times the cheap 100 piece bags of Remington brass.
Best Uses:
Mine will be used for load development for 75 grain A-Max loads.
Duration Used:
Newly purchased, will have a range report this weekend.

I loaded 10 tonight, gotta leave for work in a few. the primers seated very tight, almost felt crimped and the bullets seated firmly.
