Hi Guys,

Im after some 257 Weatherby Brass, I don't mind if its new or used.. haven't had much luck finding any and am sort of wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction.


I know you can resize 7mm but not 100% keen on the idea.

Thanks in advance,

Jess

Only place I've seen it was shooters.com.au, but they're out of stock at the moment too according to their website :(

What's your hesitation on resizing the brass exactly?
See you on the firing line.

I've been keeping an eye our for a few months for a mate with no luck either.

Checked my usual few online stores and all were out.

Might be time to revisit that resizing if you need them any time soon...

Hmm, this here?

You could be waiting months to find any factory brass. Why not give it a go in the mean time?

I think re-sizing is the only option..

Looking at a 3-4 month wait on anything

Like Aster asked, what's your hesitation on resizing the brass exactly?

There are a few guys here who do some pretty big downsizing of brass... If you want some help post a new topic on it and I'm sure you'll get some replies with useful info.
