[QUOTE="JTB, post: 1532414, member: 97196"] The newer PRC brass has been great. Only pushing the 140-150gr bullets to 3050 but the brass is in great shape after 6 firings. No trimming and primer pockets like new. I only get 4 firings from the Lapua 30-06 sized to 6.5-06 but the pressure is significantly higher in order to get 3050 from the same bullet class. I think the PRC actually has more magic than the creedmoor. ;) Run up the pressure and every brand will fail quickly. If you want the brass to last just lower the pressure. I need the 6.5-06 to go 3050 for accuracy node and I only use it for hunting, so I just toss the Lapua brass when the primers loosen after 4 firings. As a side note. I bought the 270 Norma for the 6.5-06 this time (box of 100 Lapua all tosses) and they still look great after 3 rounds. [/QUOTE]
