Yes, a friend put me into PPU where it’s very nice brass to work with where I like it just as much as my Lapua brass I run on another calibre.

I bought another gun & the only brass I could fi d was PPU so there was no hesitating buying some more!

Lapua or peterson is all if buy for the creedmoor
I got given some once fired hornady 243 brass a while back
And will run that in the old 243 now I prepared it seems like ok brass now but it was all over the place I annealed uniformed the primer pockets massive Variances there and trimed it all upto 20 thou in Variances there

Now it’s all to the best of my Capabilities it seems ok
But im glad I didn’t buy it

Would of never had to do all that to lapua

As a side question goggle who makes Hornady brass. Some interesting reading. Looks like a lot is subcontracted out.
