    I have bought some within the last couple of years - Bertram brass on special order via Dead Eye Dicks...

    Super calibre and absolutely love mine (a very custom Remington). However; well and truely overtaken by 6.5 SAUM, WSM, PRC now of course.

    I’m actually still working my way through a lifetime supply of Remington brass. I bought the Bertram brass for a 25-350 Rem Mag (which I’ve got a reamer and dies for and will build one day to be different (and a little stupid!)).

    From my experience with other Bertram brass (mainly African/rare calibres) and from what I’ve read - historically it was a bit hit and miss but the more recent stuff I’ve used/read about has been pretty good- consistent with mainstream factory brass but not quite at the Lapua/Norma etc level.

    Buy it...!

    None in stock . even with bertram . I figure about a 100 cases if not loaded to hot would see the barrel out . Trouble is its been well and truly superseded by the 6.5 prc.
