Flash Hole LaPua Brass

[Nelly]

Hi All, Is the flash hole on the Lapua 6mmBR brass the same size as the LaPua 6.5mm brass ? I'm just getting started with 6mmBR LaPua brass and I use a Harvey DePrimer with a standard de-cap pin (for most calibers it's larger). I need to get a smaller pin from him and don't know if they're the same Small Rifle flash holes ? Thanks for the help...

To answer your question directly: No, 6br are smaller. IIRC, .062" hole diameter.

yep .062

I've been told the Redding Pin is .058-.059 & that's fine, Now I need to find out if Harvey DePrimer has the smaller pin that I can use in his tool. It's alot easier for me to pop out my 6.5 Creedmoor fired primers when I come home from the range then Tumble for a few hours & put em away until I have to size & prime. Haven't had a fired case in My Redding Competition set since I got em. That Harvey DePrimer is a great tool, I sit on the couch with a football game on and a small box on my lap to pop the spent primers into. Keith what's IIRC ?

I understood that Lapua's small flash hole was 1.5 mm, or .059"

You understand correctly. .059 / 1.5mm
