Long shot I know, but I'm after 100 or 150 7mm-08 lapua brass.

Not wanting to neck up or neck down, I'm only wanting the 7mm-08 brass please.

Would consider Alpha, Peterson and Norma, but again it need to be 100 to 150 of the same brass please.
 
I hear you don't want to get none 7-08 head stamp brass. However that is all we are talking about 260 rem is very easy to open up with a straight mandrel 1/2 a mm only ! To size down 308 is just 1mm . By rights we should size all new brass before ever loading it anyhow , so we are talking just the head stamp !
As an ex 7-08 owner , the issue is and always will be availability and the extra cost . Don't handicap yourself your brass wont perform better or worse from it being run the first time once ( indeed its std practice to re-size all new virgin brass) the tiny move of this makes no matter at all )

I have resized plenty of .308 down to 7mm-08. Very cost effective and you end up with perfect brass.

I have 200 brand new Norma brass in 7mm-08. 100 of which are still in its original packaging and 100 that I have ran through the full size die, trimmed and primed, ready to load when my rifle eventually turns up! Should have been with me weeks ago 🙄

I may look down the 308 brass route also if needs be, but in reality, 200 brand new brass will last me as long as I'm likely to need.
