C: I've heard it will be a two year interruption. Is this what you're hearing too?

P: Yes. That is their plan. of course, that might change and it takes time to fill back orders and deliver to Canada.....

Some Lapua brass in today- for some cals this will likely be the last we ge for a few years:

C1: It occurred to me today that Lapua is culling their least profitable SKUs. Since that leaves them only with the most profitable SKUs, the efficiencies and margins gained allow them to reduce the street price of the products they continue to manufacture.

P: I think they are trimming all but the very few most popular one AND the ones used for military contracts.

C2: i doubt it is the reason the 7x64 and 7x65r are the bread and butter in europe like the 8x57js used a lot in eastern europe so there is something else for sure.
