I was wondering about the 6.5 PRC brass with ADG or Petersen ?

I feel like ADG is better between the two. And Lapua is better than both of them.
I've shot 100's of rounds of 6.5 PRC from all three manufactures.

I have Peterson, Lapua and Norma brass in various cartridges. I like my Peterson brass the best. To me it is the highest quality of what I have. If available when I am in need of brass it will always be my first choice. However I never feel shorted by Lapua or Peterson. I have never used ADG. Norma is crap.

I have not used Peterson prc but have in other cartridges and it seems like good brass. No issues. I have gunwerks, adg, and lapau. All the same in my option. Very little difference. I also had very good luck with hornady, strange huh. Ha

Peterson most consistent brass I have ever measured.

It seems like a toss-up to me. Lapua, Peterson, ADG, & Alpha all make great brass. I've traditionally bought Lapua brass if available, but the others have all produced very consistent ammo and have longer service life than regular production brass.
Buying American made quality brass is never a bad option.

Lapua user here. I have 16X firings on 20 pieces of test brass, and still running fine. Not running sissy loads either.

I use Peterson for everything (600 pieces for each cartridge with almost a dozen cartridges) and the necks are not consistent on factory new brass. At the very least they need to be mandreled and should be chamfered. Otherwise it's great.

Was speaking of consistency of neck material thickness.

Me too, if I can't get Lapua, I use Norma knowing its limitations.
I am also using Aussie made ADI 223 and 308 brass for some 260AI & 7-08 and 17 Remington.
Cheers.
