Thread: FYI Lapua

They’ve announced 300WSM and 6GT brass.

I dont shoot either but just FYI. Tried posting a screenshot from their newsletter but file too big.

That’s awesome. About time. I feel like 300wsm growing in popularity. Big range of pill weights and goes great in short barrel or long barrel.

Probably much the same info as here.

Great news for sure, I wonder who is making it for them ?

Does that mean it’ll be same soft stuff we get with Norma? Or they have their own specs?

It will be standard Norma brass with a Lapua head stamp....and price tag

What leads you to believe Lapua don't manufacture their own brass? Do you have a reputable source of information about that?

In the past Lapua have never made belted magnum cases, years ago they "made" or supplied the 300 WM for a short time, boundless theories were around then, most commonly that Norma supplied it

Traditionally Lapua made mainly Military & European cartridges, now Lapua supply 300WM again possibly with encouragement from Nammo USA, along with other popular US cartridges

The newer Lapua PRC offerings have a different looking head stamp & the brass appears different after firing, I have a heap of Lapua brass in stock

Of course I may be way off with my assumptions
