As is using Lapua for short range blasting in your back yard.................

I don't think Gunner is talking about shooting that lapua brass in his AR. He has a custom built 6.5x55 bolt action, that he's going to be using it in. Personally for my AR's, I shoot range pickup and still shoot sub moa out to 450 yards with it when the winds are favorable. Also, in my 6.5cm AR, I only use crap brass in it because it is harder on brass than any of my bolt guns. That is the only brass that I keep segregated. That rifle seems to run smooth as hell, but for some reason it is harsh on brass. I don't know if it is throwing the brass into the steel and concrete bench next to me or what. I've been wanting to throw the brass catcher on it and see if that may be the problem.. One thing I see more on this S&W performance center is the yellowing on the brass deflector more than on my 556 chambered rifles...
