I just got some brass from scharch or (top brass)

Anyone use this stuff before? It appears to be a good bit larger in diameter than regular hornady or win brass. I haven't had time to measure after sizing etc, but you can actually see it is larger.

Anyone have any trouble with this stuff?

That's an interesting observation.

Also, congratulations on getting an order delivered. Every time I've checked they've been out of stock, and no backorder available. I gave up and went Midway/Starline.

I'm curious to see your measurements though.

I ordered some Top Brass in 10mm. I have shot 100 rounds so far. I did resize it before I loaded of course but I didn't notice it being that much larger. I will also measure some sized and pre-sized and see if there is a big diff. I could not get a bullet to seat by hand in the pre-sized brass though.

So far I like it. Time will tell how long it will last but in a supported chamber it should be a long time before they split.

I checked out top brass' website and they sure do have some good prices on 10mm brass. Better then Midway with starline at the moment.

I was about to purchase some brass as I was tired of buying factory ammo just for the brass but at a local gunshow in Spokane, Wa I recently purchased 300 primed, never fired winchester casings for 8 DOLLARS. The casings looked like they had been factory rounds that had been pulled as you could still see the bullet markings in the casing and the primer sealant was still well intact. Not sure what was going on with the previous owner but I'm happy as a clam with my purchase. I've reloaded 100 and fired them with no hiccups so all in all I got 8 bucks worth of primers and some free brass.
