I recently bought some new Nosler 280ai brass and some once fired Nosler 280ai brass. All the new brass is stamped “Nosler” and the once fired brass is stamped “NOS”. Weighing the new brass it comes in right about 190gr while the once fired brass is all weighing about 182gr, and that is with the spent primer still in it. Does Nosler put out two different levels of brass quality i.e. NOS and Nosler? I contacted them and they said there is no difference other than the head stamp, but based on weight, I am questioning that. Anyone have experience or information on this? Thinking I will work up a varmint load with the light brass and use the heavy brass for my deer/elk load.
