Factory loaded 6bra loads to fire form 6bra?

I used 150 rounds of Lapua factory loaded 6BR 105's fire forming for my 6 Dasher. They worked fine. They were amazingly accurate.
 
If it’s a no-turn neck, I would consider it. Using Blue Collar’s current brass and ammo prices, you spend $104 more for 100 rounds of Lapua ammo ($110/ 50) than for 100pcs of Lapua brass ($116). 90gr ammo is in stock, brass is not, so there’s that.

FF Bullets will run at least $30. About $20 of powder to load them and another $5 for primers (probably more nowadays). So, by my math, it’ll “cost” you about $50 vs rolling your own. And then there’s the whole what is your time worth thing…

I plan on doing this for my next 300NMI barrel. Makes sense to me because 40 pcs of brass for it is more than I’ll ever need. Already have 2 boxes of 20 Berger ammo that’s loaded in Lapua brass.
