[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 841904, member: 39764"] ...and to reinterate again, Extreme, IMO, just my opinion, not based on anything factual but more of an instinctive feeling, sloppy reloading habits have a lot to do with issues, real or imagined and to a lesser extent the quest to load at maximum levels in less than quality brass. The case underwent a protracted development period by Lapua prior to it's release, one reason to stick with Lapua. I think people saw the Hornady derrivative as a less expensive means of obtaining cases and that didn't play out to well. Consequently, there is a lot of bad press out there. The one I own is a very accurate rifle with no issues (other than to remember to fully rack the bolt each time) that seem to appear on various forums. Having said that, it's still not for everyone. You have to be willing to invest the time in the reloading phase or purchase Lapua pre-loaded ammunition. [/QUOTE]
