Best sources for brass and dies for .25-25 Stevens? I'm not hearing good things about Bertram brass. Other options? Dies other than the pricey "custom" from RCBS? Just checking.

Check Buffalo Arms.
I got the CH4D dies and Jamison brass for my 25-20SS. You can also go direct to CH4D for dies.

Hello, Kermit1945. I ordered a box of Bertram .25-25 brass.and 1/2 the cases were of differen't lengths! Quality very bad.
I then called Rocky Mountain Cartridge..they form cases from solid brass rod on CNC lathes.
Very high quality..plus, if your gun has excess headspace..they can turn thicker rims.
Granted, a turned case is not going to be as strong as a drawn one, but since I am using Swiss 3FG in the old Ballard, it is plenty strong enough.
if you are not desperate ,Jamison should be up and running by the end of next month , RMC is still getting set up but should be cooking pretty quick as well.
