I have to give Petersen credit for issuing the appropriate warning. When I recently opened two boxes of Petersen brass there was a printed sheet stating something along the line that all brass is not created equal, and some brass is thicker than others which could lead to higher than expected pressures and thus you should work up new loads starting lower than your current loads.

I just bought a box of 100 6br brass today.
It actually had 101 pieces!

That's normal for Lapua. Always include 1 pc. extra in all their brass.
Peterson case heads run a little bigger than most measure the 2 different brands that may also be the problem
Peterson puts a little "note" in with their brass about backing off your loads. It will catch you if not careful.
