in the last 6 months, I have stumbled upon Winchester brass at Sportsman's Cat House in both 6mm Rem and 257 Roberts...
which are both my preferred brass in those two calibers...I neck the Roberts brass up to 6.5 to use in my beloved 6.5 x 57...
bought a couple bags of 50, for a reasonable price... didn't need any, but its like buying gas at a cheap price, even when you have half a tank or more left...
in those two calibers, I prefer Winchester over Remington....
yet in the 6.5 x 55 and 7 x 57, I prefer Remington's brass over Winchester..
in all 4 scenarios, its the level of quality, of one company's offering over the other...
could care less about the head stamp, just prefer which ever one is better QC...
in playing with each brass at the reload bench.. I have used 6mm Rem, brass to make 7 x 57, necked down 7 x 57 to make 6.5 x 57 and 6mm Rem.. they all worked just fine, with little to no hassles...
only odd ball is the 6.5 x 55, as there are too many lose standard floating around out there...
for example, Rem uses an incorrect .473 case head...instead of the European standards.. Winchester uses the European Standard...
but considering my Model 70 Featherweight that is a push feed, that started life as a 30/06, the incorrect RemingtonSpecs, fit the bill for a bolt action with a .473 bolt head...so I use Remington in that Model 70.. Winchester 6.5 x 55, usually won't properly eject 50% of the time or more.. so I just use what works...
