I found the brass that was the best all around was Lake City Match brass in 308. It seemed to be the best piece by piece. The wall thickness was the same and all the other individual measurements were the same. The inside walls down to the 1/2 inch mark were reamed out so a 44 caliber bullet would seat. This was a real pain in the schwantz but that was the only way we could get decent brass for our Auto Mags. Not suggesting you go to all the hassle trying to find the Lake City Match brass, just passing along some totally useless info.
