Is the 25 Creemoor LRP going to make it into a run soon?

Nice read, makes a lot of sense on what you need on your end to bring products to the market.

Nice that you are able to work with Weatherby to supply them and also handloaders. Having a good source of premium brass in North America is a big plus for everyone.

I didnt see in the article that they supply weatherby? Do you have a source for this?

I can't remember off hand where I saw it now. Might have been on the Nosler forum. The big rounds based off the 378 rounds are made by someone else probably Norma still.

@Petersen Cartridge Co can you confirm anything about this?

I'm using your LRP 6CM brass with very good results. What are your recommendations for number of firings before annealing? Thanks for making a great product.

Peterson Cartridge Now Producing 6mm ARC

Peterson Cartridge is excited to announce that it is now producing the 6mm ARC, developed in collaboration with and sold exclusively through Geissele Automatics. The joint effort of this partnership has produced a casing using a proprietary manufacturing process developed by Peterson Cartridge President, Derek Peterson, to eliminate the “machine gun bulge” issue.

“We knew we didn’t want to release our version of this caliber until we solved the bulge issue,” says Peterson. “It was one of the key issues for us.”

Introduced by Hornady in 2020 as a low-recoil, highly accurate long-range cartridge for the M16, the 6mm ARC (Advanced Rifle Cartridge) has quickly gained popularity among hunters, competition shooters, and personal defense enthusiasts. The 6mm ARC features better ballistics than the .223/5.56 and can be fired from both bolt action and gas guns.

Available from a wide range of gun manufacturers and featuring an impressive assortment of bullet options to load with, the 6mm ARC exhibits less drop and wind deflection than other calibers in its class. Couple that with the calibers low recoil, which allows shooters to spot their own shots, and the ability to shoot accurate groups at greater distances (1,000 yards plus), and it’s easy to see why so many people have taken notice of this round.

You can find the Peterson Cartridge 6mm ARC at www.geissele.com

Annealing is a touchy subject when you really dig into any info out there as to the frequency of the process. Personally, i anneal every firing for my match rifles (6x47). For my hunting rifles i normally anneal every 5th firing or so. my reasoning for this is that my match brass sees a lot more use than my hunting brass. it may take me a few years to get through my batch of hunting brass to where its all been fired and reprocessed.

If you are looking for the maximum longevity like i do with my match brass, i would recommend annealing every firing with an AMP annealer and using a maximum of an .002 shoulder bump for sizing. using this process will absolutely boost brass life.

I am suggesting this again, because I think it would be of great value to reloaders like myself;

30-06 basic brass.

I would buy 1000.
