260 brass?

[jbrimhall]

Has any one tried the alpha brass or Peterson brass and if so how does it compare to Laupua brass? I'm waiting for my PVA nucleus 260 build and want to get the best brass I can buy. I have a bunch of 243 brass I can neck up if needs be. forgot to mention I want to use stastandard Large rifle primers.

...want to get the best brass I can buy.

I have not tried Peterson but if you want the best brass you can buy get Lapua.

That's what I'll probley buy. I had good luck with my lapua 6.5-284 brass I just heard somewhere that if you use lapua 260 brass let your gunsmith know that your using lapua.

6.5 guys on YouTube did a comparison with alpha brass to Lapua. They were getting roughly 20+ reloads with Lapua and about 10 or 11 with alpha in the 6.5 creedmore. I believe they are priced roughly the same as well.

They are the same price ill just get the lapua. Thanks everyone for the help.

tried ADG brass in larger calibers not impressed. just ordered Peterson 243 brass from Graf & sons to try out . 90.00 for 100 243 lapua 96.00 for 100 at powder valley. if Peterson is close it is made in USA.

I would just buy the Lapua and call it a day. I have been shooting their .308 Win brass for many years, and never once any complaints.
