Yes, I have bought 2 boxes of 6.5 Creedmoor brass. It is very good brass. I don't feel it's as good as Lapua brass but very good. I LOVE THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE. They ship in a nice opaque foam padded box, which you can cut the thick foam in half to use for loaded rounds. The thing I found is to stay with one manufacturer. I use Lapua,Peterson, and Hornady for my 6.5 Creedmoor and for my .308 I use LAPUA,FEDERAL GMM, and Hornady. Both guns are bolt.

Ive heard that petersons is great brass, but not much out there on it..... ive always used Lapua for my 308's & was looking for brass for my 338 and saw petersons at $100 less per 100....
i'm on my 13th load on 338lm. Primer pocket start to giving up. I can still squeeze one more reload with it. ES is right about 15 or less if you found the right node. On the same load, Lapua only last 7~8 before primer pocker giving up. i had shot few on hole group with this brass at 107yard line.
I haven’t used their 338lm but I can vouch for how good their .308 is. Really consistent. I meticulously measured everything when it was new and it was very very good.

keep in mind that , my reload never excess 2780 fps. if you are the 3000fps guy, it will decrease the brass life drastically. i also do anneal after every firing. I resize the brass .002" less than the fired brass.
