Kory: What's new on 'As the World Turns'?

Kory,

Maybe you can put this all together for us. Last we heard Dakota, Laupa, and Small Caliber Todd were all bed buddies about to dump tons of precision brass on our doorsteps albeit at a high price. Now, the word from the Shot Show Soap Opera is that all three parties were looking sad and mad and didn't want to talk about it. I knew this was too good to be true....what gives?

Steve,

Sorry for the late reply -- been very busy with work. Let me make some phone calls and I'll get back to you.

I'm running out of patience with this whole thing also. Last I heard, the Tac-20 brass was on the boat somewhere between Finland and the east coast. I was told the brass would be here in January.

Regards,
Kory

Steve,

I haven't forgotten about you. I have a call into Dakota. The VP of Sales is suppose to get back to me with the official statement. I'll post something as soon as he contacts me.

Regards,
Kory

Thanks Kory----I know we are not the only ones who feel like they moved Christmas to June 25th on us without a vote.

Steve,

After two weeks, three voice mails, and two e-mails, I still can not get anyone at Dakota to call me back. I guess this is how they do business.

I'm sorry I couldn't have better information for you.

I had a similar experience with them just trying to get information on a Nesika action. I'm glad they never bothered to answer my calls, nor my questions. I bought a BAT instead and it was a very wise choice. I'll never do business with Dakota and I for one will be very happy if Lapua doesn't get in bed with them on brass. If you think Lapua brass is expensive now just think how much it would be if Dakota marketed it in some of their "proprietary" cartridges.

Lapua currently has a case to fill most of our small caliber needs. All Lapua needs to do is make good Fireball brass. That is the only case they don't make that I would like to see them bring into the country. And I don't want Dakota's greedy little hands on those Fireball cases, no sir. I want Lapua to market them directly to us. If Lapua brought in Fireball brass we could form almost all of our small caliber cases, including the Dakota proprietary cartridges that Dakota desperately wants to make bucks off of.

Boy O' Boy would I love to see Lapua bring Fireball brass over.
Who needs Dakota anyway??Just imagine how well our Cooper 20VarTargs,17Mach1V's and .221's would do with real brass.
