Hornady brass is one of the better, but it has to say hornady on the base most hornady brass says frontier on the base which is actually brass made by winchester for hornady. I personally would stick with remington they tend to last longer then federal or winchester. If you are into pushing hot loads then you better go with winchester , winchester has a higher volume more case capacity which gives you a little more slack when workin up hot loads. I hear the premium of the premium brass is Lapua or norma brass but that stuff is to expensive in my opinion and I'm doing plenty fine in the accuracy department with remington and winchester brass.
