Reloader Magazine did an extensive test on 308 brass several years ago. Nosler had the worst brass life but the best accuracy.

Ranked from best brass life to worst below with the number of firings:

Norma 23
Remingtion 19
Laupa 14
Winchester 13
Federal 12
Hornady 11
Nosler 10

They FL sized after each firing with all other factors equal. Neck sizing could totally change the results because the cause of failure was case separation.
