No more 7mm08 lapua brass?!?!

I reload 7mm08 for my wife's rig and we have a nice load developed using lapua brass. It seems lapua is no longer making 7mm08 brass. What is the next best brass option? Can I use 308 lapua brass, neck it down and expect same results? Any other thoughts Thanks!

I am using Starline brass and have been completely satisfied with it. I am not a competition shooter, so not concerned about that last hundredth of an inch accuracy.

Yeah, I like Alpha brass. My new batch was quite consistent lengthwise with the majority at 2.024 with some at 2.023 or 2.025. The neck was a little tight for my taste so I ran the resizing ball through them and chamfered them. On about 30% of them the primer pocket was a little tight initially and took some extra effort to seat the primers. Not a problem though on subsequent reloads. I find them to be significantly stronger than the old Remington brass I was using before. Cheers.
