They have since been merged with Hornady Mfg so they are one in the same.

Very true, but it is still common to see "Frontier" stamped on Hornady factory cases.
Their "Metrics" line of rifle ammunition is an even more likely place to see the "Frontier" headstamp, as well as PPU, Graf, and several other manufacturers. One of my brothers, "Cornbush", even has 2 different head stamps
in the same lot number, for his 7.7x58mm Jap. Close examination of the cases leads me to believe almost all of the metric brass is being produced by PPU, though (with different head stamps, of course).
Frontier rifle brass should be every bit as good as any other common, mid-grade head stamp (such as R-P, Win, G.F.L., etc).
Frontier pistol brass gets very mixed reviews. People love it, or hate it; rarely anything in between.
