Frequently asked questions

Can I mix Norma 6.5mm brass with other manufacturers in the same load?

Mixing brass brands is not recommended. Different manufacturers have variations in wall thickness and capacity that affect pressure curves. Keeping Norma brass separate maintains consistency across your reloading batches.

How many times can I reload Norma 6.5mm cases?

Norma brass typically handles 8-10 reloads before showing signs of wear, depending on pressure levels and your annealing practices. Inspect cases before each reload for cracks or excessive stretching.

How long is the California firearm waiting period?

California requires a 10-day waiting period from when DROS is submitted until you can take possession of the firearm. TacticCAL is your gun store Berkeley in the Bay Area.
