Haha i think Missed is a little miffed :lol:
There is nothing wrong with the Lapua chamberings, likewise the 6mm SLR.

Some people just like to be different to the crowd and achieve the same result.

There is a few on here that have over the years. A couple of them might even be from north Queensland if i remember correctly.
It may have something to do with the temperature, i know European manufactures 22 ammo (ie lapua,rws) outperforms USA manufactured ammo(cci,federal) in the snow and sub zero temperatures.
Maybe European designed cartridges only like cool weather?
