[QUOTE="nakneker, post: 2265284, member: 92539"] I’ve avoided Hornady brass solely because a couple guys I respect despise the stuff, one in particular has made His feeling very plain. I did play with some this summer loading some ammo for my Uncle. The 20 I used to develop a load for his 6.5 PRC did ok, primer pockets stayed tight after four firings with load just under max. As far was weight goes it wasn’t very good, quite a bit of variance in the 100 pieces I loaded for him. Anymore when I’m using most brass that isn’t Peterson or Lapua I find I get disappointed, you get spoiled with premium brass. I have had good experiences with other brands of brass too, still have lots of 220 swift Winchester brass that’s decades old and does great. My Uncle just completed his second slam this last week with the sheep in pic. I’ll probably never get to hunt sheep but at least I loaded the ammo that took that ram, lol. [/QUOTE]
