I'm giving your suggestion some serious consideration. Thank you very much for responding to my ad.
FYI, Lapua shut down production on brass for many cartridges until further notice, 7mm-08 being one of them.
It's looking like we are going to curb our shooting habits

Thanks for at least giving me a location to find some.
I just picked up some Alpha 708 brass. It's very well made, dimensions and weight are very consistent. For some reason it wouldn't shoot as fast as my PPU or converted Lapua 308 to 708 brass?
I lost about 75 - 80 fps with identical charge weights. Couldn't increase charge as I was seeing a flat pin at charges that did not show pressure on my other brass. They were not any heavier, indicating thicker and smaller volume. I didn't shoot them enough to know how they hold up under multiple reloads.
My normal load is 46.3 StaBAL under 140 VLD which runs 2935-2940 with a 26" Shilen. The Alpha ran 2850ish.
If your not looking for, or needing top speed, I would recommend them.. quality appears to be top notch. As with all things reloading and rifles, could just be my rifle. I'll play with them a little more to see if it was just an off day or if they work best with the heavies.
They did send them in a nice hard plastic cartridge holder and it's made in the USA

Thanks for the comparison. It's good information to have!
