[QUOTE="NesikaChad, post: 138781, member: 7449"] Hey, someone knows! I have seen the 6.5 version from Lapua. I had a handful of them in 05 at the shot show in Las Vegas. I like the small primer. Have not built a gun on them however. I assume they shoot well. Yes, well aware of the hurdles regarding obtaining brass. Ruag at the time was the only company making it commercially. I eventually got a hold of 1000 pieces, but it took awhile. I also made a series of forming dies and just made my own from 243 winchester brass. Not really in any hurry to do that again! I did use 4831 SC, the pressure was always right there on the edge though. Maybe the reamer was a bit too conservative on the throat for the long bullets. Who knows? Well versed on David Kiff at Pacific. Dave is a long time friend and I value his input tremendously. Smart guy. Cheers! Chad [/QUOTE]
