Re: lapua 308 cases all dinged up out of the box !!
I just picked up a Sinclair expander mandrel/ die for this reason. I tried using my Lee collet to fix case mouths last season and the necks were so bad that it took more effort that I was comfortable with.

31" tube, snug PTG chamber.
Re: why the 155gr. scenar for .308
Don't overlok the new 155.5 Fullbore from Berger either. I used it at the Canadian Fullbore Rifle Championships last month in Ottawa and it shot with or inside the lapua. I'm pushing them really hard, and they sure seemed to respond. Easy to load too.
