is the lapua really worth twice the price of the privi? and then there's norma at over a dollar a case!

I don't think so, but I was too cheap to ever buy the expensive stuff to see. The only test I could think of would be to get some of each, and see how many reloadings each lasts. I haven't had my Mosins long enough to do that yet.

Not if you toss your targets at the end of the session, no matter how many holes in it.

The more expensive brass, listed above are held to a higher QC where tolerances are concerned. Great for repeating accurate loads, but not really necessary. Supposedley, the metallurgy is better as well.

What do I know? I buy the 5 buck bags of 20 JMS rounds from Smokewagon Gear. They are boxer primed, and at a quarter a round, aren't that much more than surplus. A good way to build a stockpile of reloadable 7.62X54R cases.
