Wondering if anybody has used Graf brass made for Graf and Sons by somebody? Wondering who is making it for them, or what they are using to form them. (hornady, winchester etc.)?

Looking to get some 6.5x52 Carcano and 7.7x58 Japanese and Norma is just awful expensive for just shooting guns! Just looking to make some ammo so i can shoot the guns, not win matches!

I'm using the Graf's brass in 9.3x62. I've been pleased with it so far. The shoulders appear to be nicely annealed. For the price, it seems to be pretty decent brass.

Spoke with one of their technical guys. He indicated that it is being made in Czech Republic for them, which would indicate Sellier and Beloit if I am not mistaken.

Actually their tech guy recommended to stick with Winchester, in my 6.5 x 55 and 7 x 57. For whatever that may be worth.

I've been using it in 9.3x62, works as well as any other brass.

I use it exclusively in my 7x57's and have no complaints.
I did have to modify my shellholder slightly to get it to fit.

I use it an Lapua in my 9.3x62 and I am satisfied with the Graf brass and its cheaper so I bought 250 pieces of it..I really like Lapua better than any other brass however, but the Graff does the same thing...
