The ETA on Lapua 6BR brass is early 2025 ...

Alpha is still the same price, $130'ish / 100.

We had the new inlaws by brisket in Paris Texas. It was $1.99 per lbs. The cheapest you will see it in Tulsa is $3.99. There are no shortages of beef or processing facilities.

That being said, Lapua said they were going to divert their production to war production. At least they told us the truth.

In a word - GREED

this is kinda what I thought. I understand inflation, blah blah blah. That’s not what this is. $130 box of brass for $200+ is gouging the folks willing to pay it. Unfortunately that’s why primers are the price they are. They can still be had at the wholesale/distributor level for 50-60/1000. Until the people with FU money stop buying them for 200/1000, it will never come back.
It wasn’t that long ago that the shooting crowd were average income earners. For some reason people with a lot of money have gotten involved and driven the price of everything up.

I haven’t seen Peterson brass prices spiking. Just Lapua.

Bidennomics is working!!

She says it’s not inflation, things just cost more now. lol!

 

[Kracken McGraw]

I noticed retailers that don’t have it now have prices listed high as $154.99. Don’t be surprised what the 2025 6BR brass will cost you.

 

[scclimber]

not trying to be argumentative but I doubt it will be over 200.

 

[AlNyhus]

Graf And Sons have all the Peterson 6BR you need for $123/100. And that's just one supplier.

Nothin' to it but to do it.

Early 2025?!! I put in a a backorder at Euro optic like 6 months ago. That's nuts.

I'll just buy Peterson. Ain't no way Lapua is worth almost twice the price of it. It don't last twice as long, or shoot twice as good, so for me it's an absolute no go.

William Devane from Rosland Capital on TV who said to put your money into gold is now saying to put it in Lapua BR Brass.

 

[Ranger188]

Price and demand. As long as someone is willing to pay it, and they do.
I have no problem with that.
No one is twisting your arm, to buy it.

Hoarder, says the guy that didn't buy when brass was available.

I'd like to think my Boy Scout training prepared me for Benchrest. Call me what you want.
