I always try Winchester brass first, and only go to another brand if I have to.

In the "have to" list are reasons such as:

Winchester doesn't make it.

Winchester only makes it every x years.

I can't find it in Winchester.

Somebody gives me 500 pieces of some other brand.



I have yet to actually "need" the much higher quality of Lapua or Norma brass. Unless you are willing to do the time-consuming and work-intensive steps to prepare cases to benchrest standards (AND unless your gun is capable of requiring it!), then match-grade brass is a waste of money. Standard guns and standard shooters get along fine with standard brass.
