People are asking me a lot about this round. Has anyone built one around the Lapua Brass? Is it available yet? Reamer? Ben

I ordered a reamer last week.....

I'm "supposed to" have brass in 2-3wks......

Kiff has some in hand, Kevin Thomas.... it is real .......

But none of my supply lines actually have any, I'm waiting for the call.....

ok, I will wait and see. Let me know if you don't mind, how it shoots.

Bnhpr,

I built one on a 700 with a Krieger 4 groove for a buddy. The Kiff reamer I used was built around the Hornady factory round using the 120 gr. A-Max bullet, kinda' minimum SAAMI deal with the freebore shortened a bit so the bullet wasn't jumping a mile...IIRC. It was a few years ago...

It shot the factory stuff very well, and my friend is very happy with it. He uses it as a deer/pronghorn rifle.
