    Hirsch Precision comment:

    Hopefully we will have these for 2025. We will order "substantial" quantities. Pricing will be available in or around December 2024. End.

    Lapua's comments:

    Lapua, world-renowned for producing the finest cartridge cases, bullets, and ammunition for competitive shooting, is proud to announce the addition of .300 Winchester Short Magnum (WSM) and 6mm GT cartridge cases to our product offering in 2024.

Available this spring, Lapua will offer a superior quality 300 WSM case component for its loyal followers through authorized retailers. Lapua uses only the highest quality materials and manufacturing processes to satisfy the demands of reloaders who seek the highest levels of precision from their 300 WSM and 6mm GT firearm platforms.

    Well my Tikka shoots great with Winchester and Hornady both. EXCITED to try Lapua.
    Money isn't everthing. It's just something needed to purchase anything.

    Peter - this is nice but in my view Lapua should concentrate in getting out their bras product line namely .220 Russian and 6 BR brass that cannot be found anywhere in North America. I hope you have a voice with them to get the message out..

    Janeau:

    We have mentioned this to Lapua today, and realistically we do not know when we will receive this new brass or other products which we have not been able to receive, because of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

    Regards,

    Peter

    PS, Canada is small potatoes compared to the USA.
