Lapua to be producing 50 BMG Match brass - avalable in the US in early April '14

[ELR researcher]

AccurateShooter is reporting that Lapua will be producing 50 BMG Match brass - to be avalable in the US in early April (2014). See Lapua 2014 News ? .221 Fireball and .50 BMG Brass, 7mm Bullets « Daily Bulletin

And with Hornady recently announcing 50 BMG "match" brass....WOW!!!

Those new 7MM bullets should be a big hit.....

And here I was really coming to appreciate the quality of ADI brass.

 

[RHunter]

I bet they will be $5 each if 338 is $2.50

I cringe at the thought of the price...

RWS .50BMG match brass is $4.35/piece, here: TenX Bullets: RWS components and ammunition

Would be nice if Lapua were the same or LESS. We'll see.....

Im looking forward to the 221 brass

If you could get 10 loading's out of the .50 BMG brass that would bring it down to .40 a round or so? Seems you could load good match .50BMG ammo for 2.50 a round or so??

Man we already have high BC 180 grain 7 mm, we need to go up like they did with the 215 and 230gr 30 cals. Something like a 190 to 205 gr 7mm, somewhere in there, with a short bearing surface like the berger hybrid design.

FYI, the Lapua .50 BMG brass has been shipping for about a month. I purchased 2 boxes (100 pcs) thru Eurooptic - $254/50. See Lapua 50 BMG Unprimed Rifle Brass LU4PH1200 for sale!

I needed 5 cases for comparison against the RWS brand I bought a few months ago. Bruno had them for about $3.17 a case and sell them individually.

It's good to see these available. Now I wish Lapua would make the .408 as well.
