Is there any 22 Creed brass available anywhere? I'm seriously thinking about building one but would like to see the brass in hand before I decide. powdr

You can always go to a bushing die and make your own form 6mm CM brass or wait for Alpha to get more in stock


I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects

I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

Thanks Dan and guys. Brownells and everyone else is sold out but Alpha. Don't know that I want to spend $130 right now before I'm totally committed to the project. Thanks again, powdr

If you re not hung up on proper head stamp for your brass a simple size of 6 Creedmoor brass would get you shooting too. 6.5 CM brass also an option just watch your neck diameter after sizing it down. May require neck turning.

In this crazy environment a guy has to wing it a little if he wants to keep shooting his irons! Good Luck

Might be able to fireform 22-250 brass to .22 Creedmoor. Seems I’ve read of folks doing that.

Flawed logic in today's climate of component availability. Buy now in the event you may do something down the road.
If you decide to change course, component costs (especially the popular ones) are easily recouped.

The Lapua 22-250 case makes excellent 22 CM brass. -Al

I went with the 6.5 Creed brass, Necked it down and skimmed the necks. Works like a charm and it is sure a lot of fun
Head stamp was not important to me.
Saw some Redding dies on Snipers hide a few days ago!
H-4350 is your friend with 75 grain hornadys or 80 grain Bergers


How can I tell you bye if you wont leave?
