[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 653874, member: 2693"] I respectfully disagree with Old Teacher on a few comments. Remington brass is by far the worst I've ever worked with or loaded. I tried it for 5-6 years in about 9 different calibers and decided to listen to a few excellent smiths and barrel makers and pitch it because it was junk. Recently, I tried loading some 270 Win loads for a buddy's new custom rifle. He bought RP brass instead of WW like I told him. We spend a LOT of time working up loads and never could get groups that we knew the rifle was capable of. I sold him some WW brass I had on hand. That's all it took to bring out the rifle's capabilities. He gave the RP hulls away to someone at the range. Winchester, though lately I've noticed a few bad hulls in some batches in the last 3 years, is a higher quality and more consistent case in calibers I load for above RP by a good margin. There are but 2 exceptions where I'll use RP brass and that is 7STW and in my 300 RUM and soon my 300-338 RUM. Lucky for me, I bought about 500 cases in 300 RUM when Federal was available. [/QUOTE]
