Lapua to stop brass production for 6.5 Grendel, and others - Copper Creek email

I'm fairly sure the F-18s Finland got were were F/A-18s. We just called them F-18s to make them happy. They were fully capable of ground attack just the same even before we upgraded their avionics package.
Putin has always been very open about thinking all the former USSR is Russia and his disdain for Yeltsin with his handling of the break up.

A bit dis-heartening to me on many levels. Primarly saddened due to understanding the manufacturing capacity is being ramped up for war supplies. Questioned myself a little over a year ago over stocking up on Lapua brass for 6.5 G primary use to be a parent brass for 6mm ARC. No regrets now.

You know, what's interesting on this is that the brass (Lapua) from Sweden is being pinched, ostensibly due to Ukraine war, but powders (VV) don't seem to suffer like that.... they are mostly still available.
Now I'm not a follower of all the Vitavouri's but it certainly seems like they are still on the shelf here...

Lapua is made in Finland.
