My lovely wife just bought me a 500 NE double rifle so I'm looking for brass. I have dies and bullets ordered but have not found brass.

If you have some extra I'd be interested in buying it or possibly trading for something I may have.

What brands?
 
I have to check but Iam sure they are Hornady

Congratulations Bob, if no one else comes thru you can order new Norma from Hendershots for cheaper than retailers, I’ve used it and it seems like pretty good brass. Good luck with your loads and shooting
 
I have some left as well if you're interested...34 clean pieces of BELL.
 
Bob

I have 4 loaded Hornady rounds and 7 once-fired Hornady cases and two once-fired Kynoch cases.

PM me an address and I will send it all your way.

I shoot a 500NE and in my personal experience Norma brass is much better than Hornady in at least two respects: (1) Norma primer pockets are tighter and last longer, and (2) Norma brass resizes perfectly whereas I have had numerous pieces of Hornady brass that spring back and refuse to take the resize. I have experienced these issues across multiple cartridges when attempting to use Hornady brass. As a result, I now refuse to ever use Hornady brass. Find Norma and stick with it for the 500NE.

I'll stay on the lookout for some Norma brass but it seems difficult to find.
 
Norma is my fav 500 brass and mine sold quickly when put up for sale.
 
You can also go to Raven Rocks Precision and get on the "notify me" list for Norma 500NE brass. I've bought 100s of 500NE brass from RRP. He is also a supporter of this forum.
 
I have some new and fired I'd sell or trade.
Shoot me a DM and we can discuss.
 
No brass, but Graf & Sons has loaded Barnes and Federal ammo in stock and on sale.
 
I have a shit Load.
 
I don't think I have any Hornady.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .

ok $120 plus shipping
