[QUOTE="DartonJager, post: 1698358, member: 95733"] I have friend who has about 350-375 pieces of new Winchester 7mm WSM brass that's been sitting in his basement for about 8-9 years. He knows I love the WSM's and and would like to buy a rifle in 7mm wsm but can not find a Tikka in 7mm wsm. As a matter of fact all I can find are Winchester Shadows, newer model 70's, used Howa's or Savages or rifles out of my price range. He offered to give me the brass for free, if I dont take it he is going to sell it to another friend. I can find used Tikka T3's in 300wsm very reasonably priced and was considering buying a used T3 in 300 wsm and having it re-barreled to 7mm wsm as I have a geat smith a little over two hours from my home. I also have over 1000 assorted 7mm bullets as well so i have some reason to buy another rifle in 7mm wsm. My question is how hard is it to re-barrel a 300wsm Tikka T3 to 7mm wsm or if I must have another WSM buy a 270wsm as they are readily available in the T3 along with brass. Or do I just wait and bide my time until I stumble across a T3 or other equally good rifle in 7mm wsm. Thanks Art. [/QUOTE]
