Brownells and cabelas had sku for it. Retail is around 64ish which is only a few dollars more than the 223/5.56 brass. I do not have photo or video of it :mrgreen:

What kinda advantage would there be in the lapua brass over converted brass? Some of my lake city converted brass has 10 reloads on it and I've never even had to trim it. At right around 3x the price is it worth it?

The advantage of the Lapua brass is in the precision of its manufacture.
Unlike converted brass, the necks will be perfect thickness and be annealed.
In addition to that, the flash holes are drilled and not punched.

Bottom line, if you are looking for brass with the maximum accuracy potential, Lapua or Norma is the way to go.
For the majority of folks running ARs, converted brass is perfectly fine though.
I wouldn't run the high end brass unless I was using it in a bolt action.
