For precision rifle: Peterson. They are America's Lapua but better, in my opinion. Wish they made 6GT brass, maybe they will soon.

I've heard so many good things about Peterson. The company is definitely on my radar. |

My *favorite* brass? Range pickups, in my case. At my range, almost nobody reloads, so the brass is virtually guaranteed to be once-fired. I love it.
If I had to buy brass? For handgun, it's Starline first, followed by Winchester. For rifle, it's Lapua. I haven't tried Peterson brass just yet, though once I get through my Lapua brass, I might give it a shot...so to speak. :-)

For me, caliber doesn't matter as much as which rifle:
For 300 BO my own once fired (AR) For 6.5 Grendel - Lapua since its been the easiest to get, doesn't matter the rifle the AR or bolt. AR fired doesn't go in the bolt gun though. For AR in 223/5.56 - my own once fired factory, just sorted by brand Bolt in 308/7mm-08 - LC Match. I use the LC as is and also to make the 7mm-08 5.7x28. Range pickup since it's all once fired from factory. For pistols, I packed away thousands of 9mm/40/45 and 9mm Ultra Geco 5 moves ago and forgot about them. Rediscovered, what I use for handgun now. All of it was my own once fired and reloaded maybe 3 times. . |

In my travels I have found 30/06 cases for as little as I cent each, that would be $14.00 for 1400 cases, I have purchases linked belts of 30/06 cases and I have purchased 3000 unfired-pull down LC NM cases from Pat's in Ohio for 7 cents each.
While I was there, I called a friend to determine if he wanted a few cases at that price, his answer was. "NO'. I arrived home, my friend came over to inspect the cases and then wanted to purchase cases from me. I called Pat and asked him what he could do for us. He gave us the same price with found a cheap shipping rate; we ordered 2000 more cases for my friend. New, unfired national match cases, that has to be close to my favorite case. Some of the best-looking cases I have found in the unfired and once fired cases came from FA, the head stamp read something like NATIONAL MATCH FA all with the mid 1950's range head stamp. F.
