1967spud Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 possibly not as you still have the same ammount of brass in the neck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTO Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Thanks! The rifle is still being built, but I am reading up a bit in advance. I've been advised to get stuff from 21st Century Shooting to do the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brillo Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 You could avoid the problem all together by using Norma .284 cases. IMHO they're as good as Lapua. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've ordered some Lapua, but like a lot of things that SGC advertise, you find out they are on back order after you've paid for them. Does anyone actually have Norma 284W cases in stock?
