ADG 6.5 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) brass was designed not only for consistency, but for durability. One of the ways we accomplished this was adding material and trade-secret processing steps to the case in specific areas to strengthen it. With the additional material, our brass is heavier than most other manufacturers brass and therefore will require lower charge weights to achieve the same pressures and velocities due to the reduced volume inside the brass. We recommend using a reputable load data source and working up from their recommended minimum starting loads. Failure to reduce charge weights established using other manufacturers brass may result in higher pressures and velocities while using ADG brass and may result in unsafe pressure levels.
For the best performance and life from your ADG brass, we recommend using our optimized chamber design in conjunction with specifically designed ADG Fat-Boy Series full-length resizing dies. For those who want next-level performance, we would also recommend annealing between loadings. Annealing is not required to get ADG brass to perform better than our competitors, but if you are planning on setting world records, becoming a world champion, or stretching the legs on a hunt, absolute consistency is achieved when annealing the case mouth between firings using our ARC Ultimate Annealer! ADG chamber reamers can be purchased at JGS Precision. The ADG chamber meets SAAMI dimensional criteria and uses a SAAMI minimum freebore length. You or your gunsmith can purchase the reamer directly from JGS Precision using the following part number.

With the help of Josh I recently received some 6.5 PRC brass from ADG. Quality brass is not easy to come by, it is never inexpensive and there are only a few providers out there with none manufactured in the US There is a new one and that is ADG. The brass I received was at least as good as any Lapua or Norma brass that I have reloaded.
The neck walls were only .0005 diff, the length was dead on and very little case weight differences. The cases were loaded and checked for run out, there was not enough to adjust for.
I took them to the range to fire-form with no real expectations of tight groups or low SD’s. I should have known better after all the mic testing etc. I did before loading them. These 15 rounds shot a ¾ group, which includes two flyers caused by the shooter and produced a 4.5 SD at a V of 3,200. I am sure the groups will tighten up now that they are formed.
Last but not least is the fact that these are made in the US.
Five stars for sure and ADG brass will be my go to.

Let me start off by saying I didn’t buy the brass I am reviewing, but I did do all of the prep work on it for a friend.
We happened across the brass at a local Scheels and he immediately bought 100. First thing to note is all ADG brass comes with ammo boxes, every other brass company I have bought from ships it bulk. As everyone knows this causes damage to case necks. Second, all of the brass is annealed and looks great.
Aside from the looks this brass is nothing short of fantastic, the weight of the individual cases fell between 220.9 and 223.2, only a 2.3 grain difference. Which for someone that grew up reloading Winchester and Federal brass, is pretty damn impressive. I didn’t measure every piece just every 4 or 5; however, they were all within .001 that I measured. Once again without trimming or sizing yet, that’s pretty damn impressive. And every primer pocket was nice and tight, but not overly tight.
Overall my first experience with ADG brass was a fantastic one and I can’t wait for the 28 Nosler to be available for my own rifle…. Hint, hint.
