My barrels, for example, are correctly dimensioned for this.
This is probably true, though I can't say first hand for sure - I can say buying Grendel stuff from guys who really know Grendel (such as BFT), is probably a good start. That said, I'm an engineer and I take safety seriously. One degree of safety is a discomfort - I want two degrees. More inherently safer brass AND a more inherently safer barrel, is what I want. Lapua Brass - is not sufficiently safe for my standards. Those above 4 photos should make it very obvious why. Lapua Grendel brass is scrap.
