Ran across one piece of brass today at the range.
Headstamp is Lapua .308 WIN ... I'm OK so far. That's where it is parts company with .308 Win.
OAL = 1.850" (SAAMI specs for .308 Win = 2.015")
shoulder angle looks to be right at 60 degrees ("measured" with a 7X hand loupe w/angluar marks) = very sharp (.308 Win = 20 deg)
"Obvious" wildcat & whomever loaded this had placed a Sharpie pen index mark & a # for tracking.
Looks to be an attempt at a sorta PPC-type cartridge but in .30 cal
Any ideas?
Too, Harley/mods, if this isn't the right place, feel free to move to whatever topic area ....
