[QUOTE="BJH, post: 1392671, member: 93876"] I just got a 7mm-300 WM. Built on a Defiance action, 28" Bartlein, bedded in a McMillan A-5. Shoots lights out and is a fine piece of equipment. I haven't finalized what load I will be using. But everything I have put down the pipe has been .5 MOA or better. It is a great round. That said. My dad bought a Cooper rifle chambered in 28 Nosler. Shoots nearly as well and runs a hair faster (30-70 fps) depending on the load. Decide if you want to buy the extra bushings and go through the extra work with initial prep. , and have a wildcat. Or if you want to grab properly head stamped brass or factory ammo and shoot. Cost shouldn't really play a big factor. Brass is marganily cheaper for the WM, but the die setup and prep is more expensive. They are both incredible rounds and will do anything you want a 7mm to do. Performance is very similar and you would be happy either way. There are advantages to a standard cartridge. But wildcats are cool and a lot of fun too. Decide what is best for you and have fun.
