Just emailed peterson to jerk their chain again about building 6mm Remington brass take the time to email them and suggest they make it . When it gets available it always sells out . I dont see how they could lose . Help me nudge them in that direction please. David
 
I contacted them a few years ago about 257 brass. Not going to happen. They just want the newer cartridges. I left leupold scopes because they dropped their competition scope line to focus elsewhere which i took to mean f class and prs. They also dropped their custom shop. I think alpha brass would be more open to new brass if it was a large enough order. Theyve said so concerning 257 robts +P

Definitely will take more than a couple people recommending it. Just have to try. David
 
Have you asked them what volume they need to get it on the production schedule? Some companies will get more motivated if they have a preorder or some other way to help guarantee the product will actually sell.


I spent some time working with a production based business and learned that there's a big difference between the number of people who say yes I'll buy it, and the number who actually put their money on the table at the end of the day.

No replys back. David
 
That means they aren't willing to pay the cost to tool up for another caliber, plus the computer programming for their inspection procedure of a caliber they may only run once a year or even every other year. Unfortunately, some calibers have gone to the wayside and are getting tougher to find. But I just found these are available. Not cheap, but there they are if you need them.
Remington made decent brass back in the day. Not Lapua, but still serviceable. They could also be necked up for 25 caliber.
