7.62x39 case be made from Lapua 6.5 Grendel case?
#1
I know this is backwards from the usual direction. :-)

But to get Lapua SR primer 7.62x39- .308 case can use Lapua 6.5 Grendel to form 7.62x39 case? Would be using virgin Lapua brass.
Didn’t know if the shoulder would form correctly when necking up and putting 7.62x39 case taper
in the 6.5G case.

I know a lot of things can be done, but would there be any issues that might make this impractical or unusually problematic?

Other option is using Lapua .220 Russian brass and necking up in three steps, 22-6mm, 6mm-7mm & 7mm-30cal.

This is for custom rifle, using dummy case for chamber reamer and custom FL sizer from brass fired brass.

Cheers, Allen
