Hello Jim,

The information that we have from Lapua shows it should measure around .0145" average neck wall thickness.

I agree. My new .308 Lapua brass measures .3375" loaded with 175 SMK's, thats .01475" if your keeping score.

Thanks Bob and Roscoe. That is the info I needed.

Cant beleive you guys didnt question my neck thickness of .1475", should be .01475".I corrected the measurement on the previous post. That would be a thick neck though.

Roscoe:

No problem. I knew it was a typo and the corrected figure was in line with Bob.

Thanks again,
Jim
