I'm looking to buy some of them as well in order to fireform 100 rounds to 25-06,Federal ,Remington and Winchester is not worth of quality for ,after 4 or five firings the primer pocket is gone .

They should be perfect for that. I do have some 6.5 Creedmoor Starline brass and it is very good. I have been asking Starline to make 30-06 brass ever since they started making rifle brass. I'm glad they did, I guess I was not the only one to request them to add 30-06 to the lineup.

If your primer pockets are gone that quickly with all those brands of cases you are pushing too much pressure and no matter what cases you turn to it will be about the same.

I wonder how they will compare to Lake City, when it comes to durability in the Garand.

 

[2506]

The Garand is not case friendly with anything. I usually have to pitch even LC cases after about 4 to 5 firings because the rims are all beat to crap. I am hording some LC match cases for special Garand shooting events because I have a load that they really shoot great with.

I got the 30-06 brass today and it's not Lapua. Weight is around 192+ grns and neck thickness is around .015. Only measured a few out 250. neck thickness more consistent than weight.OAL is 2.83-2.87 most at 2.85 and set back is a little more than right in the middle. All of the stuff is right there. Only time will tell how it holds up.
