Fgmm Creedmoor brass?

[Mumzergadol]

Has anyone here had any luck with this stuff?
Factory load with the 130 berger worked great in my rifle. It's seems to be a lot more consistent and on average almost 25gr heavier than hornady.

Was curious if anyone had successfully built a 130 eldm load with it

Not that brass but Hornady brass and 6.5 Staball with 130 eldm were 1/2 inch at 100 in my 6.5 creedmoor

I've used the Federal GMM which was factory loaded for the 6mm Creedmoor. It has worked well.

From my 6.5CM testing…. average brass weights:
(once fired, deprimed, wet tumbled, resized and trimmed to the same lengths)
20 piece averages…

Federal SRP = 172.6 gr
Peterson SRP = 167.0 gr
Hornady LRP = 153.0 gr
Norma LRP = 154.5 gr

The Federal is pretty heavy and the case head is pretty tough and doesn’t show swipes or ejector marks as soon as the others. Peterson was the most consistent of the 4 in weight (by far). My most accurate loads use Peterson or Norma… YMMV.

Not a fan of federal brass. Way too much trouble and the juice ain't worth the squeeze

It was a pain to load mainly. The primer pockets were crap and I had to do a lot to the pocket just to get primers seated properly. It also wasn't very consistent brass in any way.
