YOU CANNOT ASSUME A LOAD IN WIN BRASS IS SAFE IN NORMA BRASS
I know this and what best practice is. I'm just saying that I had bad experiences with Nosler brass. Primer pockets become bad quickly regardless of load. This has been reported on numerous sites. Even some brand new pieces of Nosler brass don't feel as tight as Win, Rem, etc with primer pockets. I had a few that were questionable without any firings.

Also, just recently, I had 5 rounds not sized correctly in my last box causing a tight bolt close. Resized them and it was all good. I would assume the shoulder had issues.
