I just ordered 200. That should outlast my current barrel and take me into the next one. I've been on the ADG wish list for far too long.

Me too. I only used one box of Lapua brass for my 30-06 for six years, 10-12 firings per case and it was still going strong with tight primer pockets.

I talked to the guys at Peterson's and he said they can't keep with with the demand for current cartridges and are no longer planning on adding 6.5 prc to their offerings.
Thank you so much! Just put in my order!
Just saw a post on snipershide that it's gonna be more like summer. I fear that Euro Optic is gonna be sitting on our money for quite a while...
Glad I have 200 pieces of virgin ADG brass. Just need some time to start load development.

Shoot, thanks for sharing though. I was hoping after seeing some 300 PRC hit the streets the 6.5 might be right behindI just called EuroOptic Monday and they have not heard anything from the supplier.
No, but the 300 prc was just shipped earlier in May and sold out in minutes. I'm sure it's around the corner! I just received a backorder of 6.5 PRC ADG last week.So….anyone heard anything about that Lapua 6.5 PRC brass?
Anyone have any idea how long the backorder might take?

If we're still talking about EuroOptic, I have not gotten anything beyond "maybe late Summer".

I was at Bruno Shooter Supply and he said he had received a few boxes for people that Berger sponsors but none for retail sales. I did see a bunch of 300 PRC Lapua brass on the shelf so I'm a little confused with why 6.5 PRC is not available yet. I understand it's different tooling but I would assume that they would run 6.5 first since it is more popular.
