The Gun Pimp Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Hi all just wondering about Lapua Palma 308 brass is there any one shooting the Lapua Brass and what are the benefits over the conventional 308 brass accuracy and mv etc i was thinking about a load in my AE 24"Barrel thanks The small primer/pocket takes the pressure much better. The F/TR guys are running their 308s pretty hot and this can mean slack primer pockets within two or three firings. Small primer solves the problem.
