Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Sig rifle brass?

If you've used it, what's your opinion?

I've had excellent results with it in 243 and 308 Winchester. The neck walls are uniform and it's easy to assemble straight cartridges.

I've only used .243 so far. Brass was very uniform in length and weight. After loading 100 for my brother, I bought several hundred cases to put back for both of us.

I necked up some new 308 for a 338 Federal. No annealing, just a tapered expander. The 20 pieces I'm using for load development (mild to semi-wild) are on their 12th firing. No losses yet. Primers still tight. It seems pretty stout stuff. Haven't measured any for neck variation. No reason to. It shoots well. I will buy more of it if/when needed.

I bought 100 pcs of new 30-06 sig brass several years ago. I weighed every piece and from memory all weighed within 0.2 -0.3 grains of each other. Some of that brass now is 4x fired. From my limited experience I think it’s very good brass.

Good stuff, I use it in .260 Rem, .308 Win, .30-06, and .27@ Win.

I have used SIG brass in my .243 & .22-250....bought all that Cabela's in Greenville SC had. Wish I had more, its dang good brass.


Scratch that, it sucks...you should not buy it or use it or put it in your favorite gun...you should just send it to me cause my rifles & dies are already tainted....you know, in the interest of public good and all




Seriously, its good brass.

I’ve used it in my 6.5cm and have zero complaints.

I have used it a fair bit in my 308 and necking up 308 to 338 Federal. Also have been using it a bit in the 7 Mashburn which came from 300 Win brass, not too bad of stuff.

Thanks for the input folks, just bought some for a future 6MM creedmoor.

I am using the 6.5 CM and just bought some more. It seems to be good stuff at a reasonable price.

I am also using PPU in my 7mm rem mag and 22 hornet. It has been good too.

I just bought some Starline 308 . It has functioned well in the AR and seems very tough.

In the past about 80% of my brass has been Remington and it has been good stuff.

Excellent stuff. It's very consistent. I don't get carried away with stuff like weight sorting, but neck tension is always uniform, as is the consistent accuracy. Plus I get many reloads from it. Plus it makes very concentric ammo. That tells me all I need to know. When I lived in Oregon, I bought it at Cabela's, but have not seen any in Nevada. I'd definitely buy it again.

I’ve bought it from them direct. Over $100 gets free shipping.

Surprisingly good. Hint.




Just sayin'..............

Bought some for the .30-06 back during in the last unpleasantness when it was the only brass in town.

No complaints

I wonder is Sig is making it, or putting their name on someone else's brass?

My guess is they are contracting with somebody else to Sig’s specifications.

mathman talked it up a few years ago and I bought some in 243 and 270. It’s very good brass.

I've never used Sig rifle brass, but I have loaded a lot of Sig 9mm pistol brass. Most of it works well, but I have seen more cracked cases of Sig brass than any other brand of 9mm when loading on my Dillon XL 750. I'm not sure why this is or if it has any implications for Sig rifle brass, but it's definitely a pattern that I've noticed.

I think they make it at their ammunition plant in Jacksonville AR
