I recently purchased a couple boxes of HSM 243 Varmint that shot well from my new Tikka T3x. I inquired here about the case head stamp as I was not familiar with it and you guys quickly identified it as Starline brass. Well because it shot well and the price was reasonable (by today’s standards anyway) I purchased another 10 boxes. I purchased them from the same place as the first two boxes.
Well after inspection of the contents of all 12 boxes in my possession I have 6 boxes with Starline Brass and 6 boxes with brass that has HSM for a head stamp.
I haven’t shot it yet but I’m curious about your thoughts. Do you think there will be any deviation in performance between the 2 different casings? I have emailed HSM with some questions but haven’t heard back yet.
As mentioned previously, I do not currently reload but may get into that in the future. I do save my brass. Anybody have experience reloading the HSM brass?
