Peterson Brass 30BR

One thing I would like to see changed would be for them to have .001 more neck wall thickness so you could get a total cut when trimming to .01050 in a .332 chamber.

Are you saying there wasn't enough wall thickness on the stock 6BR brass to allow you to neck turn to your desired wall thickness after you expanded to 30?
 
@Peterson Cartridge Company a good friend of mine spoke with Savage Rifle Company 6 or 7 years ago about getting them to chamber their model 12 LRPV in 30 BR.
One of their points regarding to not want to go ahead with this clambering was there was no factory brass.
If you were to start production and Savage would get on board it would be an absolute game changer for the shooting community and would be a win win for all involved.
More shooters involved plenty of new rifles sold and you would increase sales substantially.
Just some random thoughts.

Gentleman , its Tim at Peterson and we are curious if shooters would want us to make 30BR brass and eliminate some of the steps in the process of making it ? All feedback would be appreciated ! Thanks in advance.
Put me down for 5 cases as long as the neck thickness is pretty much uniform and the runout from the get go is less than three thousands. I wouldn't mind just turning necks half as much if that's all I had to do because necking up cases is a pain in the butt. I hope you guys do it because in the grand scheme of things as you well know, benchrest cartridges will account for a very small sales percentage.

You bet - with about 0.015" neck-wall thickness, and 1.560", or so, long, so the cases may be trimmed and turned to, within reason, whatever the reamer dictates. :eek::DRG
