Lapua easily is the finest brass available to the reloader. Each part of the Lapua case was conceived by design to withstand multiple firings and reloading cycles. Continuous metallurgical research and evolving manufacturing techniques ensure that Lapua cases are leaders in uniformity and quality. The web of the case is tough and resilient in retaining designed dimensions so as to ensure a tight primer pocket after repeated firings. Lapuas stringent attention to detail yields uniform neck wall thickness and concentricity.
We’ve also incorporated our smaller diameter flash hole (1.5mm, rather than the industry standard 2.0mm), which has proven to provide enhanced accuracy, and is used in a number of our other accuracy oriented cases. In this respect, the new 6 Creedmoor joins the ranks of our other dedicated accuracy cartridges such as the .220 Russian (6mm PPC), the 6mm BR Norma, the 6.5x47 Lapua and the .308 Win. Palma cases.
