I am on the 2nd firing of ADG brass and so far I very pleased.  An improvement over the Norma brass I was using.  It is thicker and heavier brass than Norma, so I suspect less volume, but performance has been good.

It's GTG.  You'll probably need to decrease the powder charge you've been using and regular annealing is VERY beneficial (critical) for maintaining consistent neck tension.

I've also heard it's sometimes a little smaller on case volume and I think ADG even says something about this too.  Also been told by guys that have used it quite a lot it's pretty tough stuff and you can stand on it fairly hard without it giving up primer pockets which is good but can also be bad if you get drunk on chasing velocity too.

It took seven firings with ADG .300 Win Mag brass before I had to kiss the shoulder with a die. Excellent stuff!
