RWS Brass

Does anyone know if Norma makes RWS brass these days? A few months ago I purchased 100 unprimed cases of 6.5x54 MS Norma but was sent RWS instead. When I inquired about it the company I purchased it from said Norma makes all RWS brass and ammo and just headstamps it RWS. Is this BS or what? Thanks

Hey retpo I also had this same delema, I was in contact with Norma and they do/did mfg. brass with the RWS head stamp for 6.5x54MS. My concern was with the different demensions in the case head, the original RWS being smaller than Norma and expanding more after firing, resulting in premature case head seperation.Hope this helps . O'c.
