Even if PPU made steel cased stuff (which they do not), the Herter's is actually made by Tula, which is enough for me to say "no thanks" to Herter's.

I wasn't aware that Cabellas was using the Herters name for anything but Tula-made steel-cased ammo.
If it's S&B, that changes things a lot. What I'd want to know about the Herters-labeled rounds would be their published velicity. That's the only way to compare well-made ammunition: what are their specs? |

If I were you, I wouldn't base my decision on such an article at all.
Get a sample of both and test, then decide what works for you. Just between you and me, the article didn't even get the units copied correctly so I wouldn't say much about their ability to keep facts straight. S&B and PPU are both decent manufacturers, so your answers will depend on the results of your specific tests and the conclusions you draw. |
