What gives. Cant find any 6ppc usa unprimed brass anywhere. Just recieved a Sako rifle from my brother, chambered in 6ppc. I t says on the barrel, Sako 6ppc usa. The rifle is 25yrs old has never been fired... dont really want to fire form any 220 russian... do I have any choice?
 
I own a Sako sporter in 22 PPC USA. Sako stopped selling the brass and ammunition shortly after they discontinued making the rifles.

I fire form 220 Russion and am very satisfied with the results. I see that Midway lists some Norma 6mm PPC brass in stock. If you don't want to fire form, suggest you try a bag of 20 Norma and see how they work. They should work fine as long as you stay away from the full benchrest pressure levels.

Sako 6ppc Brass

You might try James Bartol at www.accuflite.com. He's one of the largest Sako distributors in the country and still might have some in stock or know someone else who has'em......
 
From my experience with Sako 6 PPC brass you'd be better off with either new Norma or fireformed Lapua brass. Much better quality control and uniformity. Since the Sako chamber isn't tight necked you should be able to neck .220 Russian cases up to 6 mm and fireform them with 6 mm bullets and a midrange 6 PPC load from a manual. Shouldn't be a problem and no neck turning should be necessary.
 
fasteddie-

The last time I took inventory, I had 45 pieces of unfired Norma 6PPC USA brass; 44 pieces neck turned for .262 neck chamber and once fired Norma 6PPC USA brass; and 4 pieces of neck turned but not fired Norma 6PPC USA brass. If your interested, email me at ryanharrison@sbcglobal.net and I'll see if I can find them.

Silver States Armory...6mm PPC USA..$ 68.95 per 100..i shoot it in a ruger 1v..in stock
 
I also have a Sako 75 in 6PPC USA, you've received an excellent rifle. Just wanted to throw in my $0.02 though, as I do fire form Lapua 220 Russian. Some batches of the stuff I have still had to neck turn to get to fit- just FYI. Never had that problem with Sako 6PPC brass. Have not yet tried the new Norma stuff.
 
fasteddie, check your private messages. I have some SAKO 6PPC available
