[QUOTE="Litrfoot, post: 1883694, member: 108596"] My advice, buy some new lapua brass and forget the old brass. Should have sold it with the Sako. Maybe send to the individual that purchased the rifle from you? I’m sure they would appreciate it! Moving from a factory to a custom, the chambers can be quite different! In my experience its not worth messing with brass fired from another rifle. Why expend barrel life to get something to work and possibly never get the upmost accuracy from your new custom rifle. I never transfer brass between rifles that have been cut with different reamers. Since you have gone custom I would spend the money and buy your own reamer. Going forward you will avoid this problem. I don’t shoot 338 Lapua, so I not sure how many rounds you’ll get out of that barrel? You should be able to get 10+ reloads out of the Lapua brass, so 200 pieces should take you through the life of the barrel. [/QUOTE]
