308 Neck thickness questions

[selfbowhunter]

i need some brass for a couple of projects with .015 or more neck thickness. the federal brass i have measured is .015 but i hear it is too soft to get many loads from. is there any other brass with .015 or thicker necks that is more durable?

winchester or lapua. Lapua is thicker than Winchester or at least mine is

Lapua is your only bet. Winchester is thin.
