For anyone loading 308W using these cases, how much extra case capacity (in grn H2O) do the small primer pocket Lapua 308 cases have over regular large primer cases?

ok for future reference the small primer Lapua Palmer cases have the same case capacity as the large primer cases. It seems the guy's loading to higher velocity in the Palma cases are just pushing the pressure envelope.

That's what I understand from a couple of competition shooters. They say that the head expansion is less, due to thicker walls around the primer (?)
