I've purchased Jamison brass before Captech International entered the picture and it was great brass. I started to look through the list and I could not find any in stock. Are they actually producing any?

I think Captech might be making special runs for outfits such as Grafs. Grafs happens to have discounted overrun brass that might be less than the GB offering :?:

I didn't go through their list, as it is lengthy, but I suppose it is. Since Captech acquired it, it seems like they manufacture large lots for distributors. Wasn't it located in the Dakota's? I remember to talking to the owner in the past when it sold brass to the end user. I had spoken to him about 308 & 338 Marlin Express plus others, ordering it for resale, when I had the mold business. Tooling up for a new cartridge is very expensive.

Dang, you got me questioning my memory! It was Jamison as their webpage shows them in Rapid City, SD.
