    I'm running 308 SRP in Lapua and Peterson. Need to factor in the fact that the cost of SRP Lapua Palma is greater than LRP Lapua. And it seems that the Palma brass usually disappears off the shelves first although that may be due to maybe lower Palma quantities being imported versus the std case.

    I run SRP for the improved SD and ES. Never had any hint of ignition problems - that would bugger up my nice SD and ES wouldn't it.
    Some say you should run magnum primers to counteract the rumoured ignition problems and to bring the velocity back up closer to LRP performance.

    And if you're into hot rodding (I'm not) the SRP brass is stronger in the base than the standard brass.
