375 Ruger Brass

This has gotten ridiculous. Waited 2 years for Mossberg to release their Patriot in 375 Ruger, only to encounter the brass problem. Bought 50rds of virgin Hornady, and it has been unobtainable for years (except for 3x the price on gb). Hornady always gives me the same email reply that they have no plans to make it in the immediate future, but then just last month all the distributors get a small batch.
I'll just take extra care with my 50.

I can't believe the price people are paying for it on gunbroker. Hornady is definitely letting a lot of people down.
Hornady is letting a lot of people down in more ways than brass. I have stopped buying Hornady almost entirely. If I didn't have so much wrapped up in my progressive press, I'd pack it in a suitcase with all of their trash dies and fly it to their head office and chuck it through the window. I still shoot some of their bullets, but I'm not so sure I won't stop using those once I've burned them all....just out of spite for the company.

I know it was mentioned, converting 300 PRC back to 375 Ruger. Any reason you 375 Ruger folks didn't go that route? The brass offerings are a lot better, and a bunch of us 300 PRC guys have loads of 1x Hornady brass sitting around. I gave 400 pieces to my brother and still have a bunch.

Forming 375 Ruger brass from 300 PRC would require a bit of work. You'd need to neck it up in a few steps, anneal at least once, and then fireform by either making a false shoulder to headspace or jamming a bullet.
