Hey just wondering if lapua said anything at shot about new brass for 2016?
Posted By: Hammerdown Re: Lapua 2016? - 01/31/16
That would be nice.

It would be nice if they make some 270 brass.

...and some 300 WM brass...

Probably jump right around any WSM for something special like 30-30AI.

Yeah hard to believe they don't make 300 win mag. 300 wsm would be nice too.

When you consider how popular the 300 WM is on the yearly die chart sales lists, it makes no sense that Laupa doesn't offer that brass. Makes even less sense when you consider some of the brass they do offer. They have been saying for at least a couple of years now that they will start again, but nothing so far.

I asked them at SHOT about 6.5CM and they said no plans at this time.

Not as long as their 6.5x47 is being produced.

I guess I ought to keep the 100 Lapua .300WM cases that I have then. Or maybe I should sell them to those in need. grin

I'm thinking .45/70 Ackley Improved and .30 Carbine Ackley would be GREAT!!!

Wait, extraction would be perhaps a little bit difficult grin

Blessings,

Steve

Lapa announced three years ago that they were going to start producing 300 win mag brass again. They are sure taking their time getting it to market!

7 WSM Lapua brass?! Sheee-it. That'd be like cheating.
