Re: Elite Ammunition 5.7x28mm Brass Update
It will still be a few months since I have to test the brass and I am sure issues will arise and manufacturing adjustments made.

Better pic
Of course they will be coated and just like my brass is better and improved internally my coating is better than FNH's.
We are getting into weeks now.

Re: Elite Ammunition 5.7x28mm Brass Update
GONRA is really anxious to purchase 1000 rds. of the EA brass when its available.
Is the "internal case volume" a little smaller than FN brass we're all used to?
If it is, will reduce my 2 Standard "True Blue" loads and verkup loading data for the New EA Brass.

Re: Elite Ammunition 5.7x28mm Brass Update
In a recent coffee chat vid, I think he stated same capacity as normal 57 brass. I would also start to guess all the developed reload recipes will work... or is the dimensions being slightly different internally be an issue despite being the same capacity?

Re: Elite Ammunition 5.7x28mm Brass Update
You need to drop since my brass is much more consistent, has a stronger neck and shoulder. Factory FNH brass easily vary 5% internally. The firm making the dies to be used on the machine cut up FNH brass for base line data. They where amazed at just how poor QC and consistency of the brass was lacking.

It feels heavier duty than factory brass, and it's shiney.

Re: Elite Ammunition 5.7x28mm Brass Update
Just completed a round of shooting production test samples.
No primer, neck/shoulder or case failure during entire test and pressures were taken well above 65k psi.
Not even the beginning of a gold ring inside.

I like the updated pictures.. you can actually... see the place now.
Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by stupidity.
The shooter will always matter more than the gear ever will.
Stop relying on others to do the work for you.

I'm going to assume your measurements listed are supposed to be for GRAINS of water instead of grams, given that a gram is a gram is a gram regardless of the substance it is being used to measure.
