Who is it compared to regarding consistency, how many reloads are guys getting before getting neck splitting or loose primer pockets?
Prices of Creedmoor are excellent!
In 32/20 I'm on my 6th/7th reload and have yet to lose a case, I load it fairly hot (35 - 40,000 psi) with H110 and LitGun. I really like it and plan on using it for my Grendel too.Last edited by 41bear; 12-08-2017, 10:49 AM."Wild flower, growin' thru the cracks in the street" - Problem Child by Little Big Town

In pistol calibers many use Starline by choice. (I do, for 10mm and 41 mag)
I'll happily use it if it becomes available in Grendel and is reasonable in cost. (What you doing will be, that's their thing)
I would not position it as premium brass like Lapua, but certainly would consider it the equal of Hornady or similar in most cases.

Starline brass was just released for 6.8. Early reports are durable but less capacity than others. Nice to have options but I would caution folks who have loads worked up in other brass to be careful and reduce your charge weights and work up to max.

The 6.8 brass is very thick and rugged, and I'm assuming the Grendel brass will be similar. I caution everyone moving from Lapua or Hornady brass to do a separate load workup with the starline.
