    Is Lapua worth that much more?

    My goal is to reach 1/2" five shot groups @ 100 yds with my Remington SPS Tactical 308 topped with a Falcon 4.5 -18X scope. Lapua brass is 64 cents and Winchester is 39 cents per round. Keeping my goal in mind, is the Lapua worth 25 cents more? Thanks if you can help.
