Lapua announced 6 Dasher Brass

Man, it's going to be hard to not finally get a dasher barrel spun up now.

Be nice if they’d start back offering 223 and 7-08 to the general public. Also be nice for them to start making 7 SAUM brass.

And 7stw is coming

Really? That's an odd one. I know ADG is going to add 7STW along with some other belted mags but lapua seems odd.

This is good news.

That said they are going to have a hard time competing with alpha, especially in combination with their reamers. Really makes for an easy button when it comes to dasher.

Iv got 3 dasher barrels ready to go. So more brass the better.

Is this the same as the 6GT brass that's coming out last year that hasn't come out yet?

Ha, probably! Was like that with some of the PRC and 300 WM brass too. Eventually it shows up.

I've just read some comparisons favoring lapua fireformed to alpha still so figured it'd be a little favorable. Great if lots of folks don't leave alpha and it's more available i guess?

I had an STW and sold it cause I didn't see a future in it. It was a Rem 700 Sendero and had a Brux barrel installed. Hammer of Thor.

 

[waspocrew]

Cool to see new cases available, but I just want to see 223 again. Should have bought more when I had the chance.

 

[B23]

I'm always excited to see Lapua add new cartridges they make cases for but on the flipside it's a little frustrating to see Lapua add new cartridges to their line up when they either can't keep up with their current line up or they've discontinued so many.

There late to the party. They should of did it years ago. I 'm gettting pretty good dasher brass fireforming lapua 6-br brass. But it can be in short supply sometimes, so be interesting to see how supply's hold up.

I’m not sure many will dump alpha with the popularity of their reamers. I’m curious what lapua came up with fir a spec on the brass, and wonder if it will be same dimensions as alpha or different.

I think most of alphas issues with the dasher are long over, seems most are going to apha now from lapua.

But you need a dasher.

I am in this camp. The alpha dasher reamer/brass combo has been perfect for me. Halfway through my second barrel now and 9X firing on a handful of the brass. I think it was Precision Rifle Blog that did an article about what brass the PRS was favoring and Alpha made up 67% of the total amount and 84% of dasher specifically. Don't see many guys switching, but options are always nice I guess.

Dasher is the easy button.
