what is the best 300 Win Mag brass?

[samuel_284Win]

All,
I have Nosler brass for my 300 win mag that has so far been through 5 firings and no signs of neck cracks/splits, etc...
Wanting to know if there is a better option and who makes your favorite brass?

I have some old RP brass that has probably seen 10 loads. Its when you really start to push it that most brass starts to shorten the life span. I'm currently using some Barnes brass that I think was also made by Remington I think. Only thing I can say is stay away from nickel plated as it will crack.

I've not reloaded .300 WinMag but, in other calibers I've used (in order of preference): Norma, Hornady, Nosler (poor experience with 6.5 Creed, great with .257 Ackley), Starline, literally anything else, Winchester.

Just loaded a batch of 6.5 Creed in Lapua LRP that I'm excited to give a try.

Peterson Long brass...then setup your dies to only bump shoulder back.

I might be selling off either 50 or 100 pieces of new 300WinMag Long Brass soon...I just need to figure out it's value and cost of shipping before I do.

Peterson or ADG makes some of the best 300win brass I’ve seen. Like stated above once fired for your chamber be sure to set your die to just bump the shoulder .002 or so.

If lapua makes it, I start there.

Hornady not in your list.
