Remington Braas Quality or Lack of ?

[Erik Kiser]

What load did you shoot out of the 300 Ultra to get 12 firings. I'm doing good to get 3 before the primer pockets won't hold the primer reliably. Thats 91 gr H1000 behind a 300 gr Berger at 2800 fps. I'd love to see Lapua brass as an option

Remington will leave "chads" as well.......Rich

175 grain Barnes LRX bullets loaded with 93 grains of retumbo.

Huh, I must just be lucky....I've not come across one yet.
I don't mean to imply that you are incorrect, just that I have not come across one.

with Remington I've had plenty of the following but will still buy it:

Off center flash hole
Out of round rims
Crushed cases in the package
Hanging chads
Neck wall variance of > .004

In lot weight variance is not that bad.

Yep the RP brass is fairly average but I tested RP old & new, Bertram, Nosler/Norma & FC

I would still rather use RP & suggest it to my clients, go figure....
