Anyone have an opinions of which one is better? Both are about the same price point and was seeing if anyone had both or just give their experience with their brass in 7saum.
 
Never tried adg but Bertram was not good at all. Start loosing primer pockets after first firing. After 3 firings I’d say I’ve lost half and shooting brass with pockets so loose I’d throw them away if it were any other cartridge. Good luck but I’ll never buy Bertram brass again after my 66.5saum

What was your load that was blowing primer pockets with Bertram?
 
Not impressed with Bertram 6.5saum brass I just got. Haven’t fired any yet, but all the flash holes will need deburred and/or chamfered. Not a single round flash hole. This is all acceptable with $0.50-0.75 a piece brass, but premium priced at over $1.60 per piece is shit.
