Mike Venturino had an interesting writeup about Bertram brass for the 45-75 where at the time he was working on his book "Shooting Lever Guns of the Old West". At that time Bertram brass for the 45-75 was unformed - but correctly headstamped - it was a slow process for him to properly form the cases as any crease would grow as the piece of brass went through the forming steps. Took him 8 hours to do 50 pieces of brass.
That said, it would be good to check if Bertram brass for the 45-75 is still unformed or if that has changed to a formed case that just requires the usual full length sizing, etc.

Hey Thanks for the input Sunray and John Spartan ....most appreciated.
I'll check them out tomorrow.
Gibbs 505....the only Bertram brass I've used thus far is 404 Jeffery and it is far better and much more uniform than the 404 from A-Square.
