phaedra - but why would ya? Why waste primer, bullet and powder just to end up with an inferior case and no saving in cost? Not to mention going to the range to fire-form.
Fox Firearms have Lapua 6.5 Creedmoor in stock for £97/100 - where's the saving?

How is it a waste?, I just fire formed 120 RWS 243 into 260 Rem, they all grouped very nicely under 1". The once fired 243 and 22-250 cases cost me about £23/100, nothing inferior about the resulting cases, they work perfectly.
