If the brass for this 6.5 Grendel ammo is actually made there, it's gonna be good stuff & very re-loadable. Even if it's actual Hornady made brass, you'll get some use out of it. IIRC .. when I bought this before, being made at the LC plant was part of the description in it's sales pro-mo. I just don't remember which online vendor I got it from. It wasn't Mid-South though ...
I picked up 200 rounds, both for the brass and for plinking/break in. I have purchased lake city primed brass from pulled rounds before and have had great success reloading it, 5+ reloads without annealing or any issues. This Frontier stuff isnt terribly accurate, but its getting better as the barrel breaks in, initially I was looking at 2.5 moa with hornady black, but it has tightened up and I am seeing 1.5 MOA with the Frontier. I cannot wait to get loading with the SST bullets I have waiting.
