Peterson vs lapua ?

I have 6.5PRC and 300 win Mag in Lapua
Have not been able to get my hands on any Peterson will be interested in seeing how it compares
 
Peterson had a few issues with primer pockets on there 300NM brass when it first came out, I think they got it fixed.
I put Lapua and ADG at the top.
 
I used peterson in a new 6br for short period of time then switched to lapua. Am currently using peterson in 7rem mag with no complaints. Lapua would probably be my first choice if available.
 
I haven't tried Lapua but have used a lot of Peterson 284. It's awesome, US made, and their customer service is insanely good.

I feel no need to try Lapua. I'm needing some 7mm08 brass and Peterson said it would be awhile before they get to making another run of it, but I'll wait :)
 
I prefer the one I can get currently. Both work for me, both seem to be high quality, I prefer either of them (and ADG) to any of the factory offerings.

I also wish Peterson sold 250-case lots of 6.5-284 instead 500-case lots (since I know Peterson and Grafs are both reading this post 🤡)
 
Lapua is always my first choice if it is available in the headstamped cartridge I am looking for.
Peterson is very good as well. Probably a close second.
ADG a close third, but ADG needs to refine their "ready to load" status. I have not had a single piece of virgin ADG brass that did not need chamfered/deburred right out of the box. Also, ADG is the ONLY high end brass that I have found QA let damaged brass slip by. Granted, I have loaded THOUSANDS of pieces of ADG brass, but have found a total of 5 pieces that are totally unusable due to case deformities. One neck with a big chunk missing and some weird piece of trash brass stuck in the neck, and 4 with forming issue/damage on the shoulder. ADG CS was always great and shipped out a few replacement pieces no questions asked though.
