I've completely converted to Peterson brass after having amazing results with their Palmer .308 brass {Sm primer/Sm flashole} and now use their 6BR cases {took out the club "F" Open} in both my 6BR rifles and my 6BRAI. Just cannot go past a great USA made product.
Anyone want to buy my Lapua brass...?? (I'm in OZstralia so there is that...}
Have box of new (100) and a bag of twice fired (100) that I have reconditioned to "As New"; SS wet pin clean with special tarnish resist finish and AMP annealed.. Will provide Aztec Code.

All depends on how much you want for a 100 6mmbr brass???
 
If I remember right, Peterson brass is heavier than Lapua (I can check tonight if you want.) That would translate to a bit less capacity, and correspondingly, more pressure for a given charge. Not drastic, but something to be aware of.

Good brass though, as near as I can tell.

No comment on shipping from Australia, but Graf and Sons has both Lapua and Peterson 6BR brass in stock at the moment.
 
G'day folks, as far as shipping anything from OZ to "Yankee Land" or visa-versa there is currently a stop on anything other than letters.... Welcome to C-19 world... {:~(
I have two items stuck in the USA at the moment! That is unless you want to stump up for one of the couriers such as FedEx or DHL which = $$$$
In better times though, the brass would cost about $18-25 to ship...
As far as pressure goes I have not had any noticeable pressure change when using the same load with the Peterson as I did with the Lapua... I do bNH coat the projectiles and that always makes the pressure/velocity a bit less but not so I have noticed in performance... It all just works great! 29.3 grn of AR2208 {VARGET} with CCI 450's driving those 103's (7-8 jam) into the bulleye.... Just scored 2K 450's for $198 Au {about $144 US} ...! Looks to be cheaper than USA price...

BTW: Peterson brass if you can get it in OZ is about US $1.38@......!
