Brass-maker Jamison Int’l Revived as Division of Captech Int’l
Founded by Marc Jamison, Jamison International built its reputation as a producer of unique, obsolete, and hard-to-find brass cartridge cases, including military, hunting, and African game calibers. Unfortunately, Jamison Int’l halted production 9 months ago. However, here is good news for shooters — Jamison’s machines are running again….
Jamison International has been “reconstituted” as a Division of Captech International. Jamison Int’l, now part of Captech, has moved its operations from Sturgis, SD to a new, 31,000 square-foot facility in Rapid City, SD. The new facility also offers ample room for expansion and machine refurbishment to reduce the cycle-time between production runs of Jamison’s cartridge cases. Marc Jamison will continue to oversee cartridge brass production operations to ensure quality standards.
Captech is now accepting orders on all of the previously Jamison-produced calibers as well as Jamison’s basic brass line for forming. “Many unique cases are currently available in stock and more are in production each week”, said a company spokesperson.

History of Jamison International
In the late 1990s Marc Jamison decided the gun industry needed a producer of custom and obsolete cartridge brass. So in 1996 Marc founded Rocky Mountain Tool and Armory (RMTA) in Huntington Beach, California. In 2001 Jamison moved the business and machinery from California to Sturgis, South Dakota. The name of the company was then changed from RMTA to Jamison International. In 2003 Marc Jamison teamed up with Corey Kupersmith, who had recently acquired Cheyenne Tactical (CheyTac USA). This new partnership was called Jamison International VLLC. Together they purchased the assets of Bell Brass (aka Bell Extrusion Laboratories Ltd.) and then acquired equipment from PMC (aka Eldorado Cartridge Corporation). In its heydey, Jamison Int’l produced a wide variety of cartridge brass, as well as CheyTac ammunition, and lathe-turned .375 and .408 bullets.
PLease venture out into high quality AMERICAN brass for ALL the usuals!!!
Start with 300 win mag.
agn Jett:
They are based and produce their product in South Dakota (USA). American enough?
As for what’s coming (see their Resources page and click “Retail” to view their pricelist. Then, at the very bottom:
“Coming Soon
.223 Win Super Short Magnum
.25 Win Super Short Magnum
.220 Winchester Short Magnum
.300 Rem Short-Action Ultra Mag
.300 Winchester Short Magnum
7mm Rem Short-Action Ultra Mag
7mm Winchester Short Magnum
7mm Shooting Times Westerner
7mm Remington Ultra Magnum”
Apparently they are not (at least for the moment) going to be producing 300 Win Mag. That noted, neither Remington nor Winchester produce 338 Excalibur, 338 LM, 338 NM, 375 CT, or 408 CT – nor any of the ton of the older, unique, and semi-rare cartridge cases they have been known for for many years.
Possibly I just missed your point. The article is quite clear about the company’s product focus.
I just received (9/12 AM) an e-mail from Captech, responding to my inquiries regarding availability and other products.
“1. The CT brass should be available in 60 days.
2. We will have ammo also but we are still working on development but our goal is 60 days also.
3. The turned projectiles will be 90 days.”
They added in response to my inquiry about quality, “our brass is typically a 2 to 1 ratio on the reloads as compared to other brands of the same caliber.”
FYI, the headstamp will remain “Jamison”.

Dear Sirs:
I have a friend who, for some reason, has his heart set on a .500 Nitro Express chambered for the old 3 and 1/4 inch case.
He has ordered the rifle from Heym and they have agreed to make it! I imagine they will just push the reamer in a little further and not use 3 1/4 inch brass in the regulation process (just my suspicion).
My friend wants me to find 3 1/4 inch brass for him.
Any suggestions on where I can find such brass?
Thank you.
Regards, R. Peterson
338 Excalibur brass is it going to be made again soon ?
looking for 45-110 sharps brass can you help me I have seen it out of stock at midway could I buy it direct phone 1 610 248 9521 thanks jim
Do you have brass for the 50-70 Gov ?
If so please give me the details and price.
Still making brass for the .408 Cheytac?
I use your excellent .348 Win brass and would like to see some .338-06 ASq and 9.3×62 Mauser real soon.
Been using Jamison ammo in 44-40 for my Hery rifles for about a year now. Appears you are out of stock and the supply is drying up quickly from the various online retailers. I would assume this is due to production ceasing in favor of other runs of ammo.
Will these ever be loaded using Jamison brass? Mine have been Starline brass, would love to see this in Jamison headstamped brass.
Will you be producing 30 Remington brass any time in the future?
32-40 is one of the very best old rounds and you cannot good brass at all. we have to make ours from 38-55 starline brass. there is a real demand with no one to fill it.
LATON O VAINAS 577/450 HENRY MARTIN ?
I have numerous Jamison .338 Lapua brass that will not fit into a .338 shell holder. I’ve heard that Jamison has a rep. for sloppy tolerances, anyone have any solutions or similar problems? John
Sir,
I have been using Jameson brass for five years or so in 577 Snider 577-45 and 500 3 inch BPE. I just acquired a double rifle in 577-500 express and thought I would check with you as to the availability of brass. Thank you for your effort.
Stu
I hope to shooting 50-110 sharps any chance I maybe able to get brass from you? or maybe know who might carry?thanks
I have been running low on brass for 32-40 WCF, 40-65 WCF, and 25-20 WCF. I have used Starlline 40-65 WCF and had problems with it getting shorter when fired. I need to find some 25-20 WCF brass as I use it a lot to keep down vermin.
Where can I get some of this brass?
Thanks, Bob M.
I heard you had 8 mm Mauser, is that the case? Thanks
Jamison still in business?
Do you make .45-120 brass?
