Got in my long awaited first order of 6MM Norma brass in the BLUE box today and I am not a Happy Camper
What happened to the quality of the now hard to get and expansive Lapua brass?
Out of the 500 cases I found 120 that had bent necks!!! For years when I purchased Lapua brass in the gold boxes I maybe found maybe 4 or 5 per 100 with problem necks and most of the time little or nothing had to be done to the rest of the cases before they could be loaded. Now almost all of them will need some attention before I can do anything with them.
Is anyone else seeing this or did I just get Lucky :-[
I will now have to purchase a 6MM expander mandrel before I can even start to form them into 30BR cases, so does anybody have a 6MM K&M expander mandrel for sale?

P.S. Guard those gold boxes with your life!!!
