[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1169351, member: 90399"] I recently went through a couple months of researching this same thing. I decided to order a 300 WM barrel with a longer match chambering. I just couldn't get over the idea that I will have this sweet rifle and might run into issues finding brass to be able to shoot it. The reloading dies seemed more reasonable to find and at a better price also. I also liked the amount of load data for the 300 WM compared to the others. The match chamber will let me seat the bullet further out and add a tad more case capacity. Using the AI mag length I should still be able to magazine load using the heavier bullets and still get close enough to the lands to find good accuracy. At least all of that should work in theory. If my barrel and bottom metal ever get to me I'll let you know. It's hard not to be drawn into the newer sexy super powerful cartridges. However trying my hardest to be pragmatic in my thinking, the 300 WM will fit my needs perfectly. And I do believe I'll be happier living with it on a day to day basis. [/QUOTE]
