Mr. Claus is bringing me a 6.5 Creed rifle. My first experience with one. Picked up a 50 pack of SIG brass. It looks real good. I weighed 10 cases, they were 158 to 159 grains, (no primer). Wondering how this compares with Hornady and Nosler. Most of the load data I have is with these 2 brands.

I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

The SIG brass I have is in 308 and 243 and is nice stuff. What matters more than small weight variations is the uniformity of the neck walls. My batches are very good in this regard.

I have no complaints with it. I’ve got some 6.5 CM Sig brass with about three loadings only on it, but so far so good. It’s not Lapua, but I didn’t pay Lapua prices either for it.

I don't see Sig brass around here much but if I ever run across any, I want to give it a try. I have heard really good reviews on it.
I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects
I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....
