20 tactical

[Bullseye69]

So I've got aboot 200 20 tac from Dakota brass.
I wanna make more. Ive got the Redding forming die and plenty of brass. But what brass should I use to get close to Dakota 20 tac brass.
Ive got LC and lots of regular 223 win from different manufacturers.
Anyone know whats close?

I would find whatever has as close to H20 capacity as the Dakota starting with your LC brass.

Who made the Dakota 20 Tac brass?

Jeff if you sold me the Dakota 20 Tac brass you wouldn't have a problem as to which brass to use

Pretty sure Lapua made it for Dakota.

I would try and find 223 Lapua and I'd bet the volume is similar. Just gotta live with the different headstamp. I wouldn't mind that problem

I think you will find the LC223 will have just a touch more H20 capacity than Lapua but not by much.

Thanks guys
Ill give those a go and see which is closer.
Ive got prolly a few Lapua 223 brass mixed in with the 1k 223 cases I have but not gonna dig fur them .lol

The only info I can find says Lapua, Quality cartridge and later Hornady made the brass for Dakota Arms.

It was Lapua. That was another company that Charlie Kokesh screwed, he talked Lapua into making a large run of 20 Tactical brass and never paid them
