I really want a .260 as an alrounder/steel gun ;)

Don't you start! ;)

Good to know that Lapua isn't the end all be all.
I had that bag of rem brass sitting around for years.
Seems to initially form better as well. Probably due to being softer than Lapua

Blahahaha, zing !!!

I've been using a fireform load of Lapua brass, 140gr A-Maxs & 42gr 2209. My barrel is 22" and I get an average of 2634fps. I loaded a few up with Hodgdon 100V and got up to 2800 something fps with out pressure issues. When I get around to it I'll buy a bottle of the Hodgdon and do a full work up.

I got better accuracy out of 308fc brass necked down to 243win than 243 win lapua brass.
I put it down to much thicker neck essentially turning the chamber into a "tight neck"chamber than any inherent accuracy in the brass itself.
