Lapua Biathlon

[TAJ45]

I have several blue bricks marked Sport. Does Lapua have more than one grade of Biathlon?

Lapua has one biathlon ammo and it is Lapua Polar Biathlon. Some years ago they also had Lapua Biathlon Xtreme, but it was soon discontinued.

SK produces SK Biathlon Sport as a product of its nominal 1106 fps ammo production runs. It's not a Lapua variety of ammo.

Thanks....apparently l can't read or remember. It is S&K Biathlon Sport.
I have found it to really be consistent w over half the brick at .0015" or less runout.
I am not checking ogives/COAL.

More important, how does it group?

Lapua Xtreme was awesome in one of my Bartlien barrels. But it was really dirty. Like bad. Clean after every range session or things would go bad in short order.

I bought 3 cases from Mile High when they were closing it out at half price. It was normally $30 a box.
