I personally like the Norma over the Lapua for a number of reasons.

Care must be taken with short fat as the barrel life can be adversely effected.

Never liked the 6.8, also said it was the answer to an unasked question.

Several of he 6.5s can outperform the 300 Win Mag. The belted magnum is a problem that irritates with the unexplained flyer, reason why so many now headspace off the shoulders and ignore the belt.

Did I mention I like the Norma over the Lapua, and did I add that it outperformed the Lapua during the PSR competition some years back?

PS, cheaper too.
