6PPC Sako ammo?

[blaster4]

i was just given this by a neighbor, 6 boxes of new unprimed brass and 11 boxes of 70gr loaded ammo. i never heard of Sako brass or loaded rounds. of course as luck has it i don't own a rifle chambered in 6PPC.

thanks for any help, gents

I agree, go buy some lotto tickets ASAP. I wish I had a good neighbor like that! If you want to unload a couple boxes e-mail me jeffpaulfrye@yahoo.com

Hi,


Are you sure you guys aren't confusing the Sako PPC-USA with the Sako 220-Russian cases that were available several years ago? I bought 500 new PPC-USA cases when I started out in BR, but they are different to the original Sako 220R brass. They're kind of soft and have less capacity than the 220-russians. The web is also different.

Looking at the box, that is the Sako PPC USA brass.
It is a little bit bigger at the web than Lapua 220 Russian.
The Sako factory PPC rifles fit it, or it fits them.
The brass is not being made anymore from what I heard, so if you know anyone with a factory PPC chamber they might want it.
