@ICBM and others who do refrets, when it comes to standard NS frets have you ever noticed much difference between different brands of fretwire?  I say that as certain brands of guitars I've owned that have come with standard NS frets seem to have frets that harder and softer than others.

I don't do refretting myself - only dressing and crowning - but yes, there are fairly large variations in the hardness of nickel-silver fretwire.
