Good old Remington (currently 5x fired and pockets are still good on this lot of 50), if you can find it. I get same loads as ADG. 15-20 FPS more, but same load, POI.
ADG is what I have also, pockets are a little looser on them.

What he said. ^^^ Remington in my opinion is the best. I have had Rem for over 20 years, that being said. In between that time I have used Norma, ADG, Nosler and Peterson. Have not used Peterson yet, out of the other three, I like Norma then ADG. Nosler is like Hornady, nuff said. On 6 reload with Rem and they are still good. 4 loads on Norma and still good. 2 loads on ADG and still good.
4 different Rums, hope this helps.

I would say whatever you can find. I like Remington brass and have a good stock pile of it, but I would certainly try ADG, Peterson, or Norma if its available. Best of luck, Jason
I've had good luck with Nosler & Remington.Norma was ok.Primer pockets were so itight on Norma I broke a couple pins.They never got loose on me though.

You sound a bit like me... I'm on my 3rd 7 rum and have 2 300 rum rifles in service. I've been running r-p brass the whole time. I might have a box of Nosler mixed in that my brother gave me too...NO. THE 4 that I shoot are 3. 300 and 1 is a 7Rum. I also have a new in box 7Rum, that's been on the shelf for 4 years. I guess I like them.

I think Remington lasts the longest. ADG/GunWerks good stuff. Hard. Consistent wieghts. I don't have primer pockets stretching but get case separation quicker. Norma good. I bought Nosler once about 6 years ago. The primers were falling out of pockets after third firing . Too expensive for that. As far as price and longevity I'd say Remington.

Two weeks ago I was on Offer.com and I was checking out this pistol brass so I went to the guys page that shows all the stuff he has for sale and there was 8 boxes / 160 ea of Once fired 300 RUM Remington brass , the green & Yellow boxes. He was selling it all for 350 beans so I E-Mailed the guy and he is a Hunter and target shooter but not a reloader............... He lives in Pennsylvania and I live in San Diego so as we talked I told him he can ship on the cheap to me by going to the Post office and getting one of there packages that if it fits it ship's for a flat rate ! Think it was Like 17 beans to ship to me and we settled on a price of 140 beans and thats shipping included for 160 once fired 300 RUM brass !!!!! I full length sized it all on my Forster press and its in the Tumblers right now for another Hour .......... I will check the OAL on all the cases and trim them 10 thousands under max if they need it ........ Sometimes your in the right place at the right time !
