More options is always a good thing!

Just got my first order of ADG (www.atlasdg.com) brass in. Comes in a nice reusable box and looks amazing. For a quick check I pulled out 10 cases and measured case length, weight, and neck thickness. This stuff is insane! Top weight was 252.9gr and the low was 251.2gr. Thats only a 1.7gr variance max. Case length out of box was 2.612 with only one case off that at 2.613. Necks nearly all came out to 0.0135" with a single case coming in at 0.0140. Best part is this stuff is priced better than norma, nosler or lapua. I believe they are also tested to withstand 10 max preassure SAAMI spec firings with in spec primer pockets. From what I'm seeing online for some of their other calibers that is even conservative. Can't wait to turn out some loads and see what kind of numbers I can get. Did I mention all US sourced and produced.

Finally managed to get out for a little testing. This was the first load I tried out in a Tikka with 190 Berger VLD's and it didn't fail to please. 76gr of H1000 got me 2853 FPS and an SD of 5. Grouped right about 0.47 MOA. I think maybe load development is done already. lol
