Lapua 6.5 Creedmoor Brass Has Arrived at Graf & Sons
The most hotly-anticipated cartridge brass, the new-for-2017 6.5 Creedmoor cases from Lapua, arrived late last week at Graf & Sons. With the strength and uniformity for which Lapua brass is famous, this new brass should definitely “raise the bar” for 6.5 Creedmoor and 6mm Creedmoor shooters. Note — the new Lapua 6.5 Creedmoor brass features a small flash hole and small primer pocket. As of 9:00 am Monday morning this brass is in stock at Grafs.com priced at $119.99 per 100-ct box, with a max order of five (5) boxes.
UPDATE: The 6.5 Creedmoor brass sold out after we posted this story. But there will be more coming. You can ask Graf’s to be notified as soon as the next shipment arrives.
TECH TIP: For those who have been loading Hornady or other-brand 6.5 Creedmoor brass with large primer pockets and large flash holes, you may need to reconfigure your reloading tools. Check your sizing die — you may need to change to a smaller-diameter decapping rod. In addition you’ll need to use a small primer size “pusher” on your priming tool.

Pricey brass.
Sold Out as of 9:10 AM PST 2/13/2017
Will be very interesting to see how well the upcoming Peterson brass compares – at $73/100 (estimated, based on comparably sized bases).
I posted the story at 8:50 am Central time. It didn’t last long. Some guys had pre-orders in place.
The best kept secret: Use Norma or Federal .22-250 brass and never look back.
Editor: Actually, if you want to start with 22-250, Lapua makes 22-250 brass: http://www.lapua.com/en/reloading/cases/-22-250-remington.html
We don’t recommend the Federal brass, unless you need something cheap for when you have to leave brass on the ground in action shooting competitions.
we will see how performs small primer pocket & flash hole vs large one.
One thing I would caution is sharing loads between Lapua’s creedmoor and large primer creedmoor. Don’t blow yourself up! The Lapua’s creedmoor can take a lot more pressure and putting one of those loads in your large primer rifle even if reduced could be bad news.
Just got this from powder valley, guess they have the 6.5 creedmoor brass.
