Finding 6 ppc brass

Good luck. Have a friend that has a bunch of fired brass if you are interested. I can ask him
220 Russian brass is hard to come by right now but I expect it will be available again. Just hard to say when these days. Best advice is to get on waiting list with some of these retailers.

Bruno’s has Norma 6 ppc brass in stock. That’s the route I would go for the time being.

Is it worth buying or passing and going after a more available cartridge ?
I think it is. I have owned lots of 6mm BR variants and like them alot but the 6PPC is hard to beat @ accuracy.

If fire forming from that… is neck turning a must or could it be fired as is? I’m not set up for neck turning

Put a WTB thread out here, I’m sure someone has some Norma, Sako or 220 Russian that would pop up. There’s a lot of 6PPC chambers out there, helps to know a lit about what your chamber is to get the right dies and brass, my 6PPC and 22PPC are Sako factory rifles, therefore I have Sako brass for both, Redding 6PPc sako dies… you get the idea. You want the right dies and brass for the best results, just a thought.

I just bought 100 of the Norma 22PPC brass. Just neck up then neck turn. Most of the case is formed already so fireforming is a snap. I've used the Norma brass quite a bit and not had any problems with it. As long as you stay in 29.8 to 30.3 of N133, it works fine. It won't last as long as lapua, but you can't get that now anyway.
Depends on the chamber. If it is a no turn you wont need to turn it

Looking at a sako single shot 6ppc used I believe from the 80’s?
