I've never checked them straight out the box, as I always size and fully prep them as per usual routine..
Worry about any run-out AFTER you have done your prep, fire-forming should even things out anyway.
Get them loaded and go shoot

Only reason I was worrying was because I just wanted to prime, charge, seat without doing any brass work for their first firing. I had great results with Win brass this way. I guess I'll just size these then.

I've had some fantastic accuracy with new Lapua cases with minimal prep work - basically I just run a neck expander through and chamfer. I never bother full length resizing new cases.

The problem with measuring new brass is the body of the case has dents or is slightly out of round from manufacturing, until the is fired and expanded to the chamber(which hopefully is concentric) those defects will show run out, Lapua is great brass, load n go and be happy.
