How much are they quoting you for the Brass? I've bought the standard 2 die set from Lee but have tried them out yet.

On there website it was £75 for 50 cases.they also have 284 brass at £115 per hundred.it would be less case prep than using 6.5x284 lapua brass.having a .315 neck I would still have to neck turn.

The Tikka importer says six months delivery, but mine was considerbly less.

I placed my order for a .300 WSM T3 Super Varmint Stainless on 6th May 2014 with MacLeods of Tain, the rifle arrived on 3rd Sept. 2014 - that's four months give or take a couple of days.

My .300 WSM T3 is very accurate and serves the purpose very well. Recoil is dependent on o/a weight and whether or not you use a brake/suppressor. I used mine in an MDT Tac21 chassis for almost two years and coupled with a TET Spartan III mod and TET Tac Brake it wastamed pretty well. The rifle is now in a KRG X-Ray chassis which means an o/a weight of a kilo or so less and recoil is more noticable but by no means unpleasant.

Can't see the point of all these new calibres reproducing what's already available - it's a con IMHO
