I was offered from Germany with Lapua 7,5 x 55 cases , could be a mistake or they produce now the Swiss round ?

I don't really know whether they produce brass for the 7.5mm Swiss. However, here's their address, so why not ask them? http://www.lapua.comaskmore.html

Daniel, are you sure it's Lapua andnot Norma ?

Hello

Here it's where I find the cases,

I believe Grafs (www.grafs.com) is now carrying brass in 7.5x55 and some other older military calibers. I read it is made by Hornady, but take that specualtion with a grain of salt.

I have never run into Lapua 7.5x55 brass either (as mentioned above, Norma sells it). I looked at the "eGun" add you posted, and it is a bit confusing. I does state "Lapua, new brass, 7.5x55". But then it goes on to specify: "quantity 1" (1 St�ck). Now what on earth is that supposed to mean?? Is the guy selling a single box of 20 (I halfway assume that will be the case) or what?? Question will you be interested in just 20 cases (if this is what it is)?? To me, 20 cases would be almost as good as none. It is too few to support a reasonable load development and still have a few new cases for hunting. Your choice, naturally. If it was me, I'd buy a good supply (100-200 or more) of Norma cases. You should be able to pick up Norma 7.5x55 brass for about 1 Euro per case in Europe. At least that is what it sells for here in Switzerland, and that is usually not the cheapest of places...

Ah, it seems like this is indeed Norma cases (look a bit further down in the add), and that the guy has a total of 2x50 cases he wants to sell. As I read it, the current offer stands at Eur 15.50 for 50. That would be a very reasonable price, but the auction only runs a few hours more...

done, but anyway:

I asked the seller and he agrees - it's Norma:

"Du hast recht es sind neue NORMA H�lsen .
