Lapua 220 Russian Brass

Rick, what about necking it down to 6mm? What is the powder capacity?

Butch, a 6 Grendel capacity is right between a 6ppc and a 6br.
Necking down is simple as you're only going down about .021". Lapa brass is excellent and no true fireforming involved.
I shoot 80's at around 3300fps and 68's at above 3500 with good brass life and accuracy that is very competitive in short range br, group and ubr.
It is a ppc with the shoulder moved .070 forward. Nothing more, nothing less. Excellent cartridge!

.030 should work fine with most any 62-68gr bullet.

Can’t you just seat the bullet deeper into the case?
