That stuff is tough to find! I managed to get the last 50 Norma brass that Elwood Epps had. That was the only place in Canada that I could find it!
I'm sure somebody else has it, but where!? I tried P&D, Corlanes, WSS, Bashaw Sports...

I need more than 50 brass, so I called Huntinton's in California, but they won't ship to Canada. Well then I tried Prophet River and those guys are going to call Huntingtons and broker a transaction to get me some of that 9.3x62 Lapua brass.

Whew!! :eek:
 
In case you can't find proper 9.3x62 brass, many of us form it by running 30-06 brass through out 9.3x62 dies, trimming that little bit to length, and then done is done.

Yeah, and if your rifle has slightly excessive headspace (like mine does, voice of experience here with the Husky '96...) You'll blow a primer and get a one way ticket to a broken case extraction. I fireform .30-06 cases instead using 5 grains of red-dot with the rest of the case full of cream of wheat. Then size it with the 9.3x62 dies and trim.

Or you could size the neck to .375" first, and run it through the 9.3x62 dies.

I never use reformed '06 cases in any of my 9.3X62 rifles, it deserves better than a bulged base, 'cos the right brass are not expensive enough to worry about. I use both the Lapua and Graf (PPU brass) and while I personally prefer the Lapua, the main difference between both is internal volume consistency. They both last for a very long time too.

Trade Ex have the Graf brass in stock, and as Peter (Hirsch Precision) said, he also stocks the Lapua and both provide great service.
