Big crack in Lapua brass, a trend?

    Virgin Lapua .284 Win brass fired in a .284 Shehane chamber. After my nine hour cleaning and polishing routine, I found this.

    Several hundred cases from this same lot have been fired with no drama. I’m not suggesting anything, just thought it was interesting.

    That piece of brass decided it wanted to be Harry Potter 😂

    Ok, so I had another one of these today. First firing on the brass. Same crack.
