Norma vs. Lapua Brass for .300 Norma Magnum?

I’ve been shooting 300 Norma Magnum using Norma brass and have achieved good, consistent results.

However, I’ve seen many shooters praising Lapua brass, mentioning better durability, tighter consistency, and more reload cycles.

Right now, Lapua brass is nearly 3.25 times the price I’m currently paying for Norma.

For those who’ve tried both, do you feel Lapua brass significantly improves performance or brass longevity enough to justify such a steep price difference?

I’m especially curious about real-world experiences in terms of case life, consistency, accuracy, and any measurable improvements you’ve noticed.

PS: I used Alpha or Lapua for all other cartridges and using Norma first time with 300 Norma Mag




Thanks for your input!
