Default Pmc...

Up until I recently acquired Weatherby brass for my Savage .257WBY, PMC was all I used. It's very tough stuff but you have to really watch for cracking because it is also very thin brass.

If you know of where I could get some PMC brass, or if you want to get rid of some yourself, PM me!

I hope that the PMC hand gun ammunition is loaded into decent brass,as I just bought 1000 rounds of PMC 38spl ammunition at a super deal, with the intention of reloading the brass.

Default .257wby

Hi maxx

I'm not sure I caught all the details of your post. I'd cerainly be interested in some of the .257WBY PMC brass in a larger quantity, but, the idea of necking down 7mm brass probably isn't something I'd try, especially with it being silver/nickle. I'd much sooner buy Weatherby/Norma .257WBY brass than go through the procedure of necking down 7mm brass.

Is the .257 brass once-fired brass, or unfired brass?

Didn't know PMC made brass for anything other than .223 .308 7.62x39 and .50... at least as far as rifles go

I have just over 200 pieces of PMC in 300WM and it has treated me very well. I would love to grab another 200+ if I could ever find any.
