    Lapua is almost never going to release brass less than a few years after release of a cartridge. They need to have proof of longevity as well as show an increase of profit that makes re-tooling or other associated things worthwhile.

    They don't make Dasher because they sell every single piece of 6br they make already. So they would lose revenue spending the money to retool and such when consumers are still just buying 6br and fireforming.

    Yeah I get it, but they did jump on the 6.5 and 300 relatively quickly.

    ADG it is for now though

    I understand your reasoning, but I have no doubt if they made Dasher brass, it would always be sold out...heck, if they did something really revolutionary and made Dasher ammo with their scenars, it would obviously not only be SAAMI/CIP approved, but would also always be out of stock....so surprised Norma has not done it already....
