Perfecta brass.....
Seems to be thicker than Remington brass. 357 mag brass. Maybe like 0.001" thicker? Can someone verify this? My caliper is not the best. What about weight? My new digital scale has not arrived yet.

Just used my beam balance. Perfecta weighs 80 grain and Federal weighs 77 grain. Not Remington. This is with primers in.

Sometimes thicker is not always better!
Personally I tend to stick with the tried and true long time manufacturers just so there are no surprises down the road. Unfortunately ammo makers come & go and I do not like "holding the bag" if that happens.
Don't know about where you shoot, but my Range always has pails and pails of Brass to rummage through for budding reloaders. Other than an odd-ball caliber you probably will be able to scrounge all you need if you make the effort.

Perfecta is not a "New ammo maker", it is Fiocchi. Excellent brass.
Almost any other brand of brass is thicker than Remington! This is not a bad thing.
