Guys
I am about to reload my cases for the ninth time and they still look good.
Anyones elses experience of the durability of these cases welcomed.
Obviously it is to some extent dependant upon how 'hot' you are loading but your comments would be much appreciated.

It is not a calibre I shoot but I am meeting up with a .338LM shooter in the next day or two and will ask him the question.

Thanks for that.... just trying to gauge what others are getting out of their brass.ovenpaa wrote:It is not a calibre I shoot but I am meeting up with a .338LM shooter in the next day or two and will ask him the question.

10 reloads is about what to expect from LAPUA brass , and maybe RUAG , all other makers of 338LM brass , expect 1 loading only , as they are simply too soft .
Re: .338 Lapua Magnum Brass life
Forgot to post a reply.
RUAG brass, he is on 8/9 loads at present.

Re: .338 Lapua Magnum Brass life
10 reloads on Lapua seems to get the 'thumbs up' then? Can't see why anyone would buy crap brass for this calibre if they only get a single shot out of it...looney....AND NOT CHEAP!
