for brass. Now there's too many horror stories about both their
brass and primers to trust buying it. Remington lost me when a
batch of .25-06 brass cracked at the neck on the first loading.
Annealing prevented the rest of the cases from cracking, but
should that be needed the first time around?
Especially when it comes to anything gun related, I much prefer
to buy American, but when it comes to quality going down the
tube, my loyalty goes to what works. Lately, I have been very
impressed with PRVI brass. It does come shorter than trimmed
length, but so does the other brass. Some of the flash holes
have bad burrs, but I use a flash hole uniformer in all my
brass anyway. But there is no problem with loose primer cups
and it gets annealed perfectly, making it easy to work with.
Last time I looked, Powder Valley had PRVI .25-06 brass. It's
less expensive, too. I'm sold on it! I was like u I had too load some in 25 06. It was once fired in Hornady. It was fired in that gun. I had some crack on the neck. I didn't reload the ones that didn't crack but one time and trash them. I won't buy Hornady.
