[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 85484, member: 10"] Efficenthunter, Yes it is feasible but I would not say practical. I would agree with Dave and recommend you look at the 300 Dakota case as a parent case. Neck this up to 8mm and you would have exactly what you wanted. Lapua is supposed to be taking over brass manufacturing of Dakota brass here soon as well so that is another bonus. Anytime you shorten a case significantly you get into issues of case wall thickness and the need to ream necks and such. And in a case like the Lapua, you will get into the thick body walls of the case pretty quickly when shortening. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
