No, Lapua make both types, I have 400 of the the large rifle primer Lapua 308w match grade. From what I can read a small rifle primer gives a slightly better SD, but it has to be a warm/hot day or it wont work as well and even mis-fire.

The key word in 7x64's post is "Palma".
Lapua Palma cases are 308 cases for small rifle primers.

Yes Lapua make casses for large and small primers - but Lapua Palma cases are specific for small rifle primers.

i used win748 .. because i was given it , .....cycled the ar well

Firstly thanks for all the reply's and opinions guys, bloody awesome.
Was in Dunners for a dirty weekend and in recovery time managed to get some ADI 2206H to try and some fedral match grade primers and some CCI primers.
Still really trying to decide on projectiles, way over thinking it.

Funny / stupid thing is I shot a PB last weekend with dirty old Hornady 55sp ammo of 470yrds ( 420mtrs )
