[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 955796, member: 13833"] I don't currently have a no turn version, and I'm not sure it would be a good idea if you want to use Norma brass (just trying to be upfront)! The SS , being shortened, gets into the shoulder of the case to form part of the longer neck on the SS, which leaves a ridge on the case. This can easily be turned down to the original neck thickness, but you would still be turning the neck. The 300 SAUM Norma brass is plenty thick in the neck (approx. .016") If you use RP brass, it is not an issue but I strongly prefer the Norma myself. A 24" barrel would still get you close to 3100' with the 160 Matrix and RL33. The SS really seems to be efficient with the shortened, low taper body, and 40 degree shoulder. It will easily equal the performance of the larger capacity 6.5 Sherman.......rich [/QUOTE]
