does anyone still produce 6mm rem brass?

[vegas steve]

thinking about building a 6mm remington,and was wondering if any of the major brass manufactures still produce brass for the ol 6mm

Hornady just ran some. It was on sale at Midway.

I have a 6mm and like it. If I was going to do it all over again I would go 6mm-06. Never run out of brass then.

morning, the 6=06 is a very good choice, but i would make 6-06AI definitely a screamer. rem. still makes 6mm brass, winchester use to, i have a 6mm, and a 6mmAI. very accurate. i was there 1966 Phu kat.

I'm in the middle of building a 6mm Rem. One of the reasons I decided to have it built (when I started the process about 3 years ago) is that 6mm Rem Brass was _EVERYWHERE_. One LGS had probably 60 bags of Remington brass. Right after Sandy Hook, even that disappeared.

I picked up a bag of about 250 once-fired 6mm cases and have winnowed that down to about 80 good cases. I did pick up 3 boxes of Federal Premium Vital Shock ammunition with the 100 gr Partition on clearance for $10 each, so I have those 60 cases of known history. Not that I'm really excited about Federal cases.

Gunbroker is probably the best place to look right now. That's where I had to turn to get 257 Roberts brass until Nosler did a run last year. You'll pay more on gunbroker, but they're available.

If you're into tons of brass prep Norma 7mm Mauser brass can work well. That's what I did an my latest 6AI build. Norma brass neck thickness variance and weight variance was outstanding.
