    Savage 6mm BR Norma

    I just ordered a Savage model 12 benchrest rifle in 6mm BR Norma. It has a 1 in 8 twist. I don't handload yet and am getting ready to order some Lapua factory loads. I see they come in 90gr and 105gr loads. Which would be best for beginning longrange competition. The range I will be shooting at...

    Is norma brass any good? How does it compare to Lapua? I need some good brass and I cant find Lapua. Will I even notice a difference in a regular SPS rifle?

    .338 Norma mag.

    Can anyone tell me what size shell holder I need for the "new" .338 Norma mag case? I tried a #14 RCBS which I use on my .338 Lapua and it will not work. I called Redding and they said to use #14 and it doesn't work! Also called Sinclair they don't know either. Tom Sarver

    260 Remington brass - Norma / Nosler -vs- Lapua

    Lapua 243 was historically the best bang for the buck. Now that it's risen to basically the same price as Norma / Nosler 260 Remington, is that still the case? Mike

    Gunsmithing Can it be done-6.5 Norma ?

    Can you get the 6.5 x 284 norma to function well as a repeater in a short action? The reason I ask is a buddy has a LRPV that needs a new barrel and hed love to screw a 6.5 x 284 on but only if it will still function as a repeater with his detachable mag. I dont know how long the mag box is...
