What I've been told is that it is better than RP or WW, but not up to Lapua, Norma, std.

I am seriously thinking about head stamped brass, with all the interest in this cartridge, but it isn't cheap! It could be close to $3/ea. So my question is; how many would be interested at this cost?.............Rich

If it's Nosler or Norma pre-weighted, sorted, chamfered, and deburred brass completely ready to pull out of the box and load them up...Yep, I'd be ALOT more serious, and so would a couple other guys that I know.

$3.00 each is steep, But if the brass is as I mentioned above, I'd think extremely hard about it, and lean towards a yes. But I'd definitely be building one in the future for good brass (as mentioned above) around $2.00 each.

Not trying to be a cheap-*** or anything, just being completely honest about it, since honesty is always the best policy. Plus, I don't make the kind of money that some of the guys on here do... So, yeah, I am kind of a cheap-***...

If it were 6.5 SS Lapua brass for $3.00 each...I'd be all over it like Fat Albert on a box of cupcakes.

Is this actual formed brass or just stamped? Sorry for the likely dumb question.

Once I sell one of my offroad toys (please dear lord, let someone call me tomorrow with cash... LOL), I will be building my .280 AI (or Sherman... )....And something else. Possibly 6.5 SS if the whole brass thing comes to fruition.

I haven't heard from Fat Albert yet. I guess Mud is as close as it gets
