Did a quick survey of what brands I have on the shelf. Looks like hornady is the clear favorite.

13 boxes of hornady
5 boxes of Barnes
3 Sierra boxes
2 noslers
2 lapuas
2 boxes bergers
1 Speer
 
Most of my boxes are hornady as well. They just work so darn well. After the Sierra boxes are empty they won't be getting replaced. Just like the barnes I had.
 
I would venture that without looking to verify, Nosler would be predominent for me. But, I have some Hornady, some Sierra, some Barnes, some Speer, some Chinchaga, some Woodleigh, some Norma, some RWS, some Swift, no Berger, no CEB, no North Fork, no GSC.
However, the last three are on the list for acquisitions.
 
Hornady for me as well. Their bullets have worked very well in my guns, and the price is always good compared to the other brands.

This was my first thought as well. ;)
I have more than that in Nosler alone, lol.

I guess you guys don't think I have enough with my one 50 pc box of Nosler Accubond 165gr and 1lb of IMR4350? Considering I'm only going to build my bench over the next few days, I'm guessing its not too bad of a start ;-). I plan to acquire box of 180gr Accubond, Barnes 165gr TTSX. What's the next powder you think is worth playing with for 180 gr bullets - I was thinking RL22?
 
21 boxes of Hornady
8 Bergers
8 Nosler
4 Barnes
4 Sierra + 1 bulk pack of 168 MK's
2 Speer

I've always had great luck with the Hornady stuff (especially considering typical price point) but still can't help testing out other brands. I have Hornady loads doped out for all my rifles except a newly built .284 and a Husqvarna 22-250 that came with two boxes of 50 NBT's that shoot so well, I couldn't be bothered to try anything else.
