22 Creedmoor brass (lapua preferred)

[GREATSCOTT!]

Looking for brass for my 22 creeds. Prefer the lapua convert stuff if possible, alpha would be a DISTANT second in my despair.

I searched and found someone here but for some reason i can't message the old OP about it...rookie skills on here lol

H O L Y C O W. In my experience, new factory Lapua brass doesn't even shoot like that until its fired at least once!!

GREAT QUESTION......but off topic and would be better served in the Reloading Discussion section of the forum. Short answer: the difference is not that they're so bad, its that Lapua is so much better in my experiences, which is why Im looking specifically for it.

I think they're fine brass manufacturers, but they do not hold up to 25+ firings even with proper care. I keep my rifles a long time and I SHOOT A LOT. If I didn't, shorter life duration would be the lowest denominator.

You should buy lapua 6mm creedmoor brass with Small rifle primers and then size it for 22 creedmoor yourself. I've bought 6mm creedmoor lapua brass off midway a couple months ago for around $90 for 100. I've also been using Peterson brass for my 6mm Creedmoor. I've been very impressed with the Peterson brass so far and would highly recommend it. I'm not sure if the durability will be as good as lapua brass but so far it appears it will last. The initial quality of peterson brass was better than any lapua, Nosler or Norma that I have seen.
