Starline 6.5 Creedmoor Small Primer Pocket brass is ready to receive shooter's precisely tuned handloads, but Starline made a slight change to this particular collection of brass in order to improve the reloader's experience. Starline 6.5 Creedmoor Small Primer Pocket brass, like the name implies, features a small primer pocket instead of the standard large primer pocket usually featured on 6.5 Creedmoor brass. This allows for better ignition of slower-burning powders, as well as more reliable ignition in colder temperatures. Primer pocket measures .080-inch Sells in 100-count and 500-count packs Ships in loosely packed bags Starline 6.5 Creedmoor Small Primer Pocket brass also benefits reloaders in that it is less likely to break decapping pins and also maintains primer pocket size much better under higher pressures than standard primer holes.Delivery time approx. 7-14 days.
Starline 6.5 Creedmoor Small Primer Pocket brass is designed to accommodate shooter's precisely tuned handloads, featuring a small primer pocket that sets it apart from standard large primer pocket brass typically found in 6.5 Creedmoor options.
Additionally, Starline 6.5 Creedmoor Small Primer Pocket brass is engineered to reduce the likelihood of breaking decapping pins and maintains primer pocket size more effectively under higher pressures compared to standard primer holes.

Great brass 20/07/2018
This brass is very good, strong, consistent weight, and volume. Primer pockets stay tight after 8 reloads (most I've done thus far). My only complaint is that they tend to run a little short, 1.905 +- .002. (brass from each individual lot varied less than +- 0.001). Lot to lot variation was a little higher. This doesn't seem to affect accuracy in any way. I only neck size my brass and thus far have not had to re-trim after trimming once when they were new to get a uniform length for the entire batch.
Excellent Brass; great value 27/04/2018
I'm ordering more! Like the small primers with American-sized flash holes, which didn't really need deburring. Weight range 161.9Av/159.3Lo/164.7Hi/1.3SD. I sorted into two bins with 1.5 gr spread, with 7 culls in the hi/lo tails. At this price, I could do that!
Necks are very uniform. Measured every 90 deg around mid neck; only a couple cases had more than .0005 high-to-low; for 25 cases (100 readings), 2 readings each at .0125 & .0140; the vast majority were .0130 or .0135.
Load: CCI 400 / 140 gr Nosler RDF / 42.0 gr H4350 / 2.810 COAL
Rig: Ruger Precision Gen 2 / Harris BR-M / rear bag / Zeiss Conquest HD 5-25X x 55)
Performance: 2740 FPS 7.3 SD, 1/2-2/3 MOA @300 yd (and my lack of skill contributes most of that).
If you're like me and lack the skill for 1/4 MOA shooting, the Starline/NRDF combo is a VERY affordable alternative to Berger/Lapua, and pairs extremely well with the RPR for budget-conscious long-range shooting
