Thread: L118A1/2 or Accuracy Int AW ammunition specs

Yeap ,

AI had Lapua make some hot ammo for them , its called HPS , it used a 170gr lockbase bullet at 2820 fps , it was accurate , but quite HOT , they had 3x small primer stakes/crimps in them to stop the primers backing out of the brass . The fired brass looked like a belted magnum brass , the rear unsupported section was blown out , and the brass was trashed , you could NOT reload it , it was stuffed , you can get a S&B single turn turret marked for this ammo from AI .
They stopped making it a long time ago , the factory chart had the traj curve 1/2 way between the 308 & 300WM .
