Here's the brass idea.


1 box of 100 for Lapua compared too 2 boxes of Hornady too make up for 100 brass.

The Lapua box is $119 = quantity of 100
Hornady at $96 = quantity of 100.

I wasn't planning on this approach, but for the extra few bucks it only makes sense.

I heard that the % of defect "could" be from 7 to 10 ish % using Lapua brass,,, so this "could allow me too reap the rewards of 93 too 90% of quality brass.

After volume weighing out the Hornady brass I have ranges of 178gr too 184gr doing the 1gr split,,,
If I was too perform the 0.5 split it would be X's two that.

12 volume size cases from 200 brass makes it challenging too load for a-possed too half of that with Lapua brass.

Some folks get away with the 0.75 split which is 3/4gr volume per-case,,, my pal Vick mentioned its wizer to choose the 0.5 or 1/2gr split for match purposes.

Again, up too each person too find what works for their own unique needs.

My Hornady brass will still be part of the master plan,,, its now ready for annealing this week.
At least I can group it into the larger batch % since it will be come the general plinking stuff.

Learning along the way.
