Love the gun but hate the dog sh## hornady brass !!
I'm with you there. I'm waiting on dies to be delivered. I want to load for it but at the same time I don't because I don't wanna deal with their brass.
I hope it gets me far enough into the year to make do until some Lapua or Peterson becomes available….
I picked up 100rds of the factory ammo to get started… im thinking I can get 3 or 4 loads out of them, until brass is available…lets hope

I've got everything just sitting here - dies, Peterson brass, bullets, primers and a load of appropriate powder. If only my smith would get my rifle DONE!
Just got it put together and hoping to start barrel break in this weekend. I have @ 40 rounds of factory for the break in and 100 pieces of RCC brass that I picked up last fall before they bankrupt. It's beautiful brass, but I've heard some mixed reviews, so just hoping it was worth the stupid expensive price. Hoping to find a load for 195 EH's.

Verdict is still out, definitely not all giddy over it, through two different lots of Hornady 175 eldx, no where near the advertised velocity. I have done no loading for it so there is much room for improvement, I'm just killing bullets, powder and primers to get brass, still a lot of testing to be done
just burning up factories to break in barrel's and waiting on ADG or more Peterson brass. Forget the factory crap. It's just a low grade 7 mag or 7 saum with factory crap. Got to reload for sure to make it work having.
Send me your brass and I'll make sure it functions for you until my brass backorder comes in

That brass is harder to find than an 8lb jug of RE26. LMAO
