[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 502708, member: 10"] My numbers are from many years ago. Right when the Excaliber and Pegasas came onto the market. I tried to get some from A-Square directly but at that time they were having some serious problems financially and it was nearly impossible to get brass from them. In fact for a time, it was rumored that A-Square was no more in business. MidwayUSA had some brass and that is where I got it from, with shipping it came to $6.96 per case for 50 cases at that time. I believe it was 5-6 years ago. With the problems with A-Square brass in the past, even paying $2 per case is to much!!! I can not prove this but I suspect that Jamison is now making brass for these two A-Square chamberings. The reason I say this is because Jamison would not make brass for these chamberings on their own, not enough money in it. BUT, if A-Square contracted them to build their brass, it would be better quality and cost less. The price you mention you paid for your A-square brass would be in the perfect price range for A-Square to have Jamison make it and then make a little extra in profit reselling to to the public. I would bet your brass is Jamsion made brass. If your only getting 3000 fps in a 36" barrel length you would say your running very comfortable pressures as my 338 Allen Xpress which is a much shorter 338 Lapua Improved design will do 3000 fps in a 6" shorter barrel length.
