Thoughts on adg vs norma capacity

[cohunt]

Also, how many rounds do you get out of Norma versus how many rounds do you get out of ADG?

No clue, norma is only 1x fired and adg is new

I have norma 7rm brass and some have been loaded 5x, I have 300rum adg brass but I'm only at 1x with that cartridge

I hope that you will keep us updated. I would be very curious to know what the case capacity of the once fired ADG Brass will be.

I'm guessing more than now as even if the body is the same, the shoulder will definitely push forward once I fire them

Norma is 1x fired and then resized with my fl size die, the adg is brand new out of the box

Resized = how much bump back?

Last time I switched brass I just did a quick ladder to be safe. Takes 8-10 cases for piece of mind. Ended up with .5 grains higher charge in the Norma brass. Woulda been fine had I not done a ladder but wasn't worth it. Stay safe brother

I also replaced my Norma 300 WSM brass with ADG.

I started 4 grs lower, worked up in .5 gr increments, settled on 2 grs less powder than the Norma.
One reason on going that much lower was to not over pressure the new brass on the 1st firing and to treat it like any new component and start low.

Did you achieve similar velocities with 2 grains less in the ADG brass?

Yes, great accuracy too.
