    Anybody load any of this stuff?? They're known for their pistol brass but they seem to have branched out into rifle brass. Anybody know if its worth keeping and reloading once fired? Whats it comparable to? Thanks guys
     
    I have used it in my 7mm Rem mag. It had a pretty big weight variation but I sorted into three different lots to load. I have some with ten firings without losing a case. It is very tough and handles loads that Winchester brass won't. I dont know about their Creedmoor brass but it is anything like the 7mag I would try it.

    I have used the Jag creedmoor brass. It’s heavier than Hornady so reduce the charge by 1grain or so. I paid $.39 for the stuff I bought and for that price I think it works well.

    I use the 7mm RM Jag brass necked down to .264. It averages 35 grains weight more than Nosler. The necks before being necked down measure 15.6 with a ball mic. Nosler measures 15.2. H2o capacity is 3 grains less for the Jag. Stout brass but adjust your load.

    Awesome, @White_Shark If you had to place Jagemann brass in a line up of current other brass manufactures, where would it fall between Norma, Lapua, federal, hornady, etc?? I haven't started reloading the once fired brass yet but it would be nice to know where the brass stands, as i have a stock pile of Norma, lapua, and hornady brass. Thanks brother, and thanks for replying!!
     
    @BLKWLFK9 It is hard to make a comparison because first and foremost we are an OEM supplier, so our manufacturing is driven by customer price requirements. Everybody wants Ferrari performance at Kia prices. We hold tight tolerances on our parts through very controlled manufacturing processes and quality checks (We have invested a lot into our quality department and measuring/testing equipment) and I believe that we make great brass, especially at the price point that we are able to charge. The fact is if you shoot a lot of factory rifle and pistol brass, you've probably shot a lot that we have made without realizing it.

    Probably have. Im not concerned about brass price, more so quality. I shoot some Defender ammo 6.5 cm so i naturally have the brass. Thanks for commenting and offering the info.
