$10 a case, WOW! Not judging, just an observation and simple math.
 
I just bought a box of 20 Hornady brass from a store in British Columbia. $80 Canadian shipped. I have two boxes of RWS brass that came with my reloading dies package. I don't care for it. Rim thickness varies and all cases were short in length. Hornady cases are correct length with thinner and more uniform rim thickness. Short case length plays hobb with crimping (necessary for serious recoil calibers) and inconsistent rim thickness can make for inconsistent snap over and ejection.

Sorry, the store only had one box of brass. They do have 400 gr bullets at a good price but I was looking for 350 gr.
 
I see Nosler has 375 H&H brass, packets of 25 regularly $130.95 reduced to $54.95. So all you have to do is spend about 30 minutes per case and have enough equipment to swage out the belt and body to .5" then neck down and set the shoulder- with proper equipment you could do it in a long day or possibly 2. And when you were done you'd still have cases with incorrect markings- but hey, you'd have saved a few bucks- maybe.

That price for those .375 cases from Nosler are for "blems" and are part of their blem sale. Nothing wrong with buying blem cases or bullet, but not at those prices for me.

Hi PaulB. Would you be interested in another WJ Jeffery .450/.400 NE 3". It's an extractor model and in superb condition, cased as well. Made in 1908. The rifle is here in Texas.
