    That’s the impression I got looking some WSM brass today - thicker or more solid feel to it.

    I have been to Bruce Bertrams factory in Victoria a while back now but was very interesting seeing how brass is made. From what I have read Bertram Brass is pretty good, it was discussed on several US forums and got good reviews. While I was there I got to shoot one of there big guns a 450 3 inch Nitro on there under ground range at the factory, pretty cool.

    Used it in a 338 lap and it was as good as the Lapua brass
