Very First Norma .284 Win Case!

[Shiraz]

Production is in full swing in Sweden and the picture below shows the very first .284 Win Case that came off the line. They are in testing and we expect to have them here in USA by the end of April.

EXCELLENT!!! I need 300 of them as soon as you take possession of them!

 

[Cigarcop]

Awesome!....... I knew my life was gonna eventually get easier! Lol

Shiraz,

Any projected date for the 6 Dasher brass???

Phil.

 

[22DASHER]

Will you be accepting any pre-orders for the 284 or 6 Dasher brass??

 

[Shiraz]

Shiraz,

Any projected date for the 6 Dasher brass???

Phil.

It may be months for the Dasher brass. We will keep on them, but if I were to guess, it will be late summer.

As far as pre-orders for the .284 go, we are waiting for final pricing. When we have that, we will make it "active" on our bullets.com website and will take orders. Those orders will be shipped in the order they were received.

Thanks.

How cool is that !!!

Hopefully this brass will be much tougher than most of Norma's stuff. Is anything special being done to toughen up the back end? In my experience Norma brass is way to soft and the primer pockets die fast. Just my personal experience.

My experience has not been the same as yours. I have been shooting Norma .300 WSM and the 7 RSAUM for several years and have not had issues. I know several Teammates of mine on the US F-Class Open Rifle team that also use Norma brass.

To answer your question - yes, the heads are double stamped for harder primer pockets.

Shiraz,

Sounds great. Looking forward to trying some out. New build in the works in .284 Win. If the brass works out you will not be able to make them fast enough. Thanks for bringing some great stuff to market.

Yeah, I'm curious as to its dimensions compared to Lapua 6.5x284 brass.

+1, that is exactly what I was planning. Hopefully there's enough to go around. I'm hoping someone doesn't order more then they need with the plans of selling them down the road after the initial inventory is gone. At a mark up of course!

 

[tac284]

Hopefully it will be limited per customer, so everyone gets a taste.

 

[Dgd6mm]

I would like 200 for starters.

 

[Shiraz]

We now have pricing.

It appears that they will ship the whole order in one shot to us. They are visually checking every case before packing and we expect them to arrive mid May. The SKUs have been "energized" on our website with the link above and they are being sold in 100 packs as well as 1000. Pricing on 1000 is better, of course. Currently there is no limit set on them. Orders will be processed in the same order they were taken.

Thanks!

If anyone in the Houston area (or who shoots at Bayou Rifles) wants to go halfsies with me on a 1000 pack let me know.
