[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1435661, member: 85987"] If you want great accuracy you need quality brass. In the past that meant Lapua then every one else. Today Peterson Alpha and ADG make brass that is at least as good. Just look at the ELR crowd. Peterson is the goto in 408 and it's getting noticed for 338 Lapua based cartridges also. To make first shot hits at 1.5 miles means great consistency I used the 6.5 creed brass and it is very nice. That rifle shoots 1/2moa with all bullet weights. The 147's will shoot 1/3moa out to distance and hold less than 2 inches of vertical @ 700 yds. Most of that is me and my 14x optic. 500 yd vertical is a bullet width. Unfortunately my wind reading isn't. I just ordered 308 peterson brass. The 1/2-3/4 moa loads in fed brass should tighten up in both size and SD by a bunch with adding this brass to the mix [/QUOTE]
